[s-cars] c/c coolant temperature sensor "t" fitting

[Tom Green]

Why we continue to refer in the subject line to a part nobody needs is  
beyond comprehension.

Konstantine,

Don't go getting cheap on us.  You have the list of parts you need -  
get them.  Procrastination
or going cheap is what got you where you are now.  : > )  You have  
subjected this sensor to
15 years of underhood heat and drenched it in coolant.  These  
electronic parts get old and
quit even without such treatment.  Maybe you don't need it now, but  
you are going to pay
$7.50 to ship this stuff and the sensor won't add a cent to that.   
Later on, it will be another
$7.50.  If there is something else you need, get it now.

I am not sure why you referenced the advice you got below when the  
part you need isn't
stocked at Autohaus.  : > )  Don't bother with AW.  There is nothing  
there you need.
