Coolant temperature sensor relocate
I see a plug on the drivers side reason I’m asking the headers are to close to the original location and burnt the wire. I tried to rewire but no go on this side so I was told just move to the drivers side. If I can get the plug out will this effect the temperature in any way or is this a bad idea HELP PLEASE

Do you mean move it to the passenger side? You'll need a 3/8" square drive socket and a lot of luck to get the plug out. I'd rewire it without moving it. Use some silicone sheathed wire or even regular wire in silicone tubing.

I made my own 3/8" square drive tool out of an old 7/16" screw in rocker stud that came from a bbc. Ground one end into a square taper, hammer in and removed with an impact gun.
Oh I should mention that my temp sensor wire has a sleeve around it made of the same material they use for header wraps.
