Removal
Loosen sensor and remove by hand. Use care to
avoid breaking threads.
Clean sensor threads, sensor, and sensor cavity.
Installation
Apply a small amount of Thermal Joint Com-
pound , P/N 322170, into the bottom of the sensor
cavity.
Install the sensor hand tight. Remove the sensor
and check thermal joint compound coverage on
the sensor probe.
Thermal joint compound should cover at least
75% of the length to the sensor probe.
SLOWLY tighten temperature sensor to a torque
of 12 to 18 in. lbs. (1.35 to 2.0 N·m). Wait 10 min-
utes for trapped air to bleed from cavity. Thermal
compound may seep past threads. Re tighten
sensor.
