where's my coolant temp sensor?

[How15]

as above! i've seen a thread saying front right of the block on a 182, is it the same on my little ph1 1.4? and aditionally, where can you bleed the system from?
cheers guys!

it should be near to where the top radiator hose attaches to the engine, will have 2 wires

If you remove this temp sensor will you need to top-up coolant?

 

[How15]

i dunno :S i'd imagine so, i'll tell u in a week when it's my day off and i can get hold of a new one!

Yep you'll loose some coolant when you take it out so you'll needed to be quick as you don't want to let too much air into the system.

good point. on the subject, does the radiator have a bleed nipple on it? i saw a thread where some1 said it did, but then the dude asking couldn't find it?

 

[bmh.01]

Nope the only bleed point is on the thermostat housing.

 

[How15]

cool (ant) lol! i'll take a look.

ther is a bleed screw on the housing and on one of the pipes coming out of the heater matrix,keep the fan on speed1 and on hot helps it too bleed properly
