pa4ul - thanks for the link. great to see it in pics and look at the exact part and where its located.

shane.... other than changing out the flange, is there anything related to that that i might as well replace too?? i went to ecs looking for that part, wow, really cheap.

 

get the coolant temp sensor and o ring at the same time. the sensor mounts into the flange, so its dumb not to do it at the same time since its such a pain to get to.
