Now you got it. The one up front is for the cooling fans etc. The small one freegdr posted a pic of which is on the back of the cylinder is strictly for the temp gauge. That is the one there are 2 different versions of.

Can someone answer my quoted question? I can't seem to notice an actual sensor/sender. Looks like just a plug. And if it is the sensor/sender must be on the block, and that'll be a b1tch!
