Coolant Sensor Replacement -

Friends,

Just completed changing coolant temperature sensor on my own. Thanks for all the information and help. You guys rock.
I also used this link:

Few lessons learnt:
- Make sure coolant cap is tight
- Be patient, it takes a while to get the clip off and then back again.
- Always put O-ring in the tube instead of on the sensor (lost one)

I lost some coolant, guess I forgot to tighten the cap after relieving pressure.
Which coolant should I use to top up the coolant tank?

Thanks

the coolant that is distilled water.

you can have 30% coolant and 70% distilled water and still be perfectly fine. If you lost just a little, top it off with distilled water.

otherwise, buy some g12 (it's pink).. or if yours is purple, i believe that is g12+.

Wolfdog, ha ha ha.....no I am not McCain.

After changing the sensor, I still have CEL. Is anything wrong? or its just a CEL, how can I delete the code?
