A good afternoon



There are two on the end of the head sortof under the dist. This one
comes out the back of the head and is on the dist. end above the exhaust
manifold. The two I think you're talking about have 2-3 wire plugs on
them. Thiis one is just a single wire. I'm pretty sure it is going into
a water jacket I just don't know if it is for the ECU or the gauge. My
water temp gauge has always worked so it shouldn't be that.
