Hi everyone this is my first post here. I always read on this site and I'm so happy it exists.
So, what is the difference between the sensor near the thermostat vs the one on drivers side head? I know the thermostat one is for the ecu and the head is for the dash but I cannot find any info on sensors for sale that differentiate locations. or are they the same sensor? I’ve seen people say that the one on the head is one prong vs two prong on the thermostat and it's different for different years and engines.
I have a 1994 Silverado with the 5.7 tbi and I’m having issues with the gauge reading proper temperature. I know it gets to operating temp because I test it almost every time I turn it off with an infrared thermometer. 170-199.
Recently I replaced the radiator, water pump, and fan clutch so I don't know if any of that would cause the guage to be lazy.
