(see illustration).
29 Release the wire clip and disconnect the
sensor wiring.
30 Unscrew the sensor and remove it from
the air cleaner housing.
Refitting
31 Refitting is the reverse of the removal
procedure. Tighten the sensor to its specified
torque wrench setting.
Coolant temperature sensor
Removal
32 The coolant temperature sensor is fitted
to the underside of the inlet manifold (see
illustration). Either drain the cooling system
or be prepared for some loss of coolant as the
sensor is unscrewed.
33 Release the wire retaining clip and
disconnect the wiring connector from the
sensor.
34 Unscrew the sensor from the manifold
and withdraw it, then plug the opening to
prevent the entry of dirt. If the cooling system
has not been drained, work quickly to
minimise coolant loss.
Refitting
35 Wipe clean the threads of the sensor and
of the thermostat housing. If a sealing washer
is fitted, renew it whenever it is disturbed to
