Temp sensor is in the thermostat housing left front where the rad hose comes out of the block

Oil pressure is on the rt rear...kinda above the spark plugs

Sometimes it's just easier to answer the question...than start a whole thread on how to search

Maybe it's just a NY thing

Isn't right/left convention from sitting in the car, in which case the spark plugs would be on the left?
