Ok I just got through reading the thread about the coolant temp sensor for the computer, and when I went to replace mine there was no place for it on the water neck. The only thing that I saw that could even remotely be it was on the heater tube. So what do I do? If I don't have a place for the sensor, then the puter wont read it and I could still be running rich. Please help as I am considering going carbed again.

as far as I knew the cool temp sensor for the computer was located in the metal heater tube running to your heater core.

It would deeply pain me if after all that work in the other thread, to convince you to stay with EFI, you ended up going carb'd because of a coolant sensor. carb

I think the stock location is on the heater tube. I have not seen the stock setup in a long time though, so I coud be wrong.

Sometimes they do end up in the lower intake manifold.

Is this the sensor with a plug? Or the one with a pig tail type loop whatchamjigger? I ask because if the plugs match it should be correct.

Good Luck Buddy.

It is the sensor with the plug. The reason I thought it was in the water neck was that in another post in reference to it, it was stated that it was there. If it aint then we ae in luck. Yall got me convinced to keep the efi. Not to worry it will just take a little time.
After all efi is all I have ever delt with. Don't know the first thing about carb.

California Air Resources Board?

j/k - carbs are decent for racing because they are only outstanding for a narrow RPM band. They aren't fantastic for all conditions.
