help, low coolant sensor
#1
coolant leaking from the sensor. got new gasket no joy. pulled sensor x2, sensor cracked got new sensor. went to pull and replace even i could do this,however, now it won't come out or tighten. i think the plastic collar with the threads has broken off in the rad. maybe 1/2 inch gap but won't come out. q? IF i can't get it out would it be o. k. to j b weld it in place until i can get another rad.? thanks for any help/ ideas. 83 gsl.

If you do that the new sensor won't come out of the old radiator so you'll have to by another. Try sticking a flat tip screwdriver in at an angle and tap the broken piece out. Angle with the threads for best results

tpg thanks for your quick reply/help. i cut the top off the old sensor. worked the plastic collar out of the rad. with 2 small flat tip screw drivers & a little help from my friends. i changed over the gasket, put in the new sensor all is groovy. small victories, attainable goals. again thanks.
