Which temperature? Oil, Coolant
Oil temperature sensor is on the driver's side, rear of the block, above the oil filter

Coolant temperature sensor, mounted in the intake manifold, almost somewhat under the IAC motor and TPS.

Sorry for not being more specific. I am looking for the coolant temperature sender (probe) that sends the data to the stock coolant temperature digital guage.
