????
The picture by Chongo is correct. It shows the Engine Coolant Temperature sensor. And so is my description of the ECT gauge sender unit.

You modifying the picture shows the ECT gauge sender unit circled in blue.




I guess I mistook your supplied picture. At first glance it looks as though you are stating the ECT as the gauge sending unit. Sorry.



No problem. Others have made the same mistake before but you were the first to do something about it, i.e., put a blue circle to make it clear. Guess whose picture I will use from now on if I want to suggest checking/changing the ECT gauge sender unit?
