Lt1 Sensor location diagram?
Hi.
I bought a 1992 c4 lt1 project car. The electrical grounds are bad and I am redoing them. Yes, the insanely hard to get too ones on the bell housing and the back of the engine. While there, I noticed a broken sensor, right where the battery black cable bolts to the engine. What sensor is this? I will guess it is an oil or coolant temp sensor.
Long story short tho, I am just getting started and there will be more broken sensors, so do we have a sensor location diagram for the LT1? ( with part numbers added in would be awesome) I found lots of diagrams of opti-spark and vacuum out there.. not what I need right at the moment tho.

Do you have a factory service manual for the car? It helps.
The sensor could be the knock sensor, Is there a metal cover over the sensor, if yes then it is the knock sensor. If there is no cover it is most likely the oil temperature sensor.
I have an excellent set of the 92 factory service manuals for sale in the fs section if you need them. Make me an offer.

thanks you! Yes it is "L". The way the heck back there one. Lol. Do you by chance know for sure that the coolant temp and oil temp sensors are the same part? I only ask because I have a new coolant temp sensor in hand already. Thx for the assist.
