3 wire coolant temp sensor.

well guys just got back from the parts store. Cant find a 3 wire temp sensor anywhere. Been asking for a 98 f-body and keep getting a 2 pin sensor. does anyone know if a 2 pin can be adapted to run a gauge? I have an extra one and thought it might work. its seems to me that you would run one lead to the guage and the other to ground and it would work.....any thoughts

i think i just saw one on LS1 PERFORMANCE PARTS .COM, try there, hope you find it, i think it was under ls1 to s-10 conversion parts.

yep, just double checked, they have a ls1 3 wire temp sensor for 39.95$ it IS under s-10 ls1 v-8 swap :thumb:

3 wire engine coolant temperature sensor (one wire for the dash gauge, the other two for the PCM. PN 12551708).
3-wire coolant temperature sensor connector: 12102748

I got mine from my local dealership.

thanks for the help guys. just so you know the part number for the pigtail has changed. it is now 88988301.
