I'm trying to order a coolant temp sensor online, but it gives me 2 different ACDelco part #s. How do I tell which I need?

 

There are two different coolant temp sensors - a one-wire sensor for the driver side cylinder head (that drives the dashboard gauge) and a two-wire sensor for the water pump (for the PCM).

 

One is for the guage one is for the computer. I bought mine at O Reilly's can't remember how much but look at the connector before you go that way you will know when they hand you the correct one. As I remember it is universal from 1986 or 1987 - 1997. Also it already had 'sealent' on the threads so a drop right in and go solution.

Good luck

 

Oh, so I need both! lol. Thanks. I feel like an idiot

 

 

1993-1997 coolant temperature sensor for gauge AC-Delco # 213-77 GM # 25037332

1993-1997 coolant temperature sensor for pcm AC-Delco # 213-310 GM # 15326386

 

^ Thanks!

Its telling me its 213-77 & 213-928 though ???

 

I punched in 213-310 and it came up as being superceded

 

Before posting, I verified the AC-Delco numbers at the AC-Delco website.

213-310 still shows as correct and 213-928 shows for the applications below (not f-body):

BUICK(3)1993-1995

CHEVROLET(4)1993-1995

BERETTA GTZ(1)1993-1993

BERETTA Z26(1)1994-1994

CAVALIER(2)1995-1995

OLDSMOBILE(7)1993-1995

PONTIAC(9)1993-1995

GRAND AM(7)1993-1995

SUNFIRE(2)1995-1995

 

Weird. The site I'm using might be screwed. Or sometimes, ACDelco Canada differs slightly from the US. Its a pain in the ***.

 

And THANKS!
