Ok so my car got this real bad coolant leak about 2 weeks ago. It poured water out as fast as i could put it in. Me and one of my friends go to lookin at it and thought it was the water pump bcuz mine had never been changed. So i changed the water pump and the radiator hoses and proceded to go to Florida (Not in the Stang). Well i got back last night and drove it around and it started leakin coolant again. I got to lookin at it and behind the water pump on the right side on the block is the ground for the battery and what looks like some kind of sensor right next to it. Water is coming from right there. I dunno if there is freeze plug near there or what that sensor is for but if any1 could help it would be greatly appreciated. I'll get pics up as soon as i get the camera emptied from Panama. Thanx guys.

the sensor you are describing sounds like the oil pressure sensor. If it is showing on that sensor it is probably the WP again.

To see if it is that sensor unplug it and verify you no longer measure any oil pressure on the stock gage.

i doubt coolant is leaking from the oil sender. you need to go rent a cooling system pressure tester or take it to a shop and have them pressurize the cooling system. quit throwing parts at it. my guess is that its leaking from the timing cover. good luck
