Temp sending unit

Where is the temp sending unit? I know it's on the driver's side on the lower manifold, but I can't find it. I have a Cobra manifold, if that makes any difference.

RE: Temp sending unit

No, that's the one for the computer. I'm talking about the one for the guage cluster, it has a single wire and everyone is saying it's on the driver's side. I got a new Autometer guage, and apparently threaded it into the wrong hole, now my CEL is on b/c the computer doesn't know what temp the engine is at. I need the one for the guage cluster so I can unplug it and plug in my new one.

RE: Temp sending unit

The sending unit is on the forward end of the lower intake. It will have only 1 wire. The sending unit is usually a brass looking metal.

The ECT is on the passenger side, and has 2 wires.
