Default Need help finding oil temp sensor!!

I searched for topics on this already, but they all failed.

So I need to find the sensor b/c it's still unplugged after header installation(yes I had them put in). Thanks for the help.

I think the sensor on my 86 is just above the oil filter.

I think it is sticking out of the side of the oil pan. I'm not sure though.

Nope. I looked it up and that's the oil level sensor. I still haven't found the oil temp sensor. :confused:

It's kind of next to the oil pan, I found it and it was disconnected.

Thanks for all who helped, maybe now my engine won't throw any more codes at me.
