How to replace the Coolant Temperature Sensor on Chevrolet Corvette?

This procedure should only be attempted after the engine has cooled completely. Some of the coolant in the engine should be let out. There is a cable that needs to be disconnected from the negative terminal of the battery. The electrical connector for the ECT sensor must also be disconnected. On all engines, the ECT sensor is located on the left cylinder head near its front side. When unscrewing it from this region, do ensure that you employ enough caution. For purposes of avoiding leakage and thread corrosion, apply Tenon tape around these threads before fitting in a new one. Get the sensor into place and tighten it to meet specific torque requirements. Now refill your cooling system.
