The sensor is located underneath the crank pulley,towards the passenger side. Its just a plug in sensor so it should be very easy to unplug and replace. Can't help you on the coolant sensor though.

now your opening topic says TPS, so which is it?
if it is the the CAM sensor, it's on the driverside of the front chain cover behind the P/S fluid resv.(as stated above, the one on the pass side is the crank sensor) the coolant sensor is not serviced by itself, you'll have to buy a new coolant resv, seems to-be a common problem of late.

yeah, 2001 up they did away wth the coolant sensor on 'Stangs. my guess is that "junk" in the coolant system, ie: rust, scale and other debris get in the float of the sensor and cause it to stick, might try and flush the tank out and see if that helps.
