    Coolant leak from Temperature sender.

    Hi Everyone,

    I was working on my van today looking for leaks and noticed that there is coolant leaking from the temperature sensor. It has fried up the sensor and connector. Surprisingly it still works and gives me a reading.

    My questions here are. Should I just order a new sensor and find a connector as well?

    Try retorquing the sensor?

    Here is a pic.

    I'd just replace the sending unit. The connector is a standard spade connector available almost everywhere. Tim
