[V8] Coolant temp sensor

[Ingo Rautenberg]

OK, Now you guys are gonna make me check both '91 5 speeds and the '93
auto.  My Pearl '91 (with reworked heads, etc prior to me buying the car)
has the sensor (white) on the right head directly below the edge (where the
air filter resides) of the bottom half of the air clearer housing, just
below the height of distributor. That should be the norm, no?
