hey tugboat-call a local GM dealer and ask for a temp. SENDER for your year, model, 4.3l z engine, I believe you said(z engine is the 8th digit of your vin-z- and designates throttle body). This to a GM dealer(as well as most others part houses) should be a piece of cake. I truely believe that GM calls the gauge sender a sender and the temp. sensor for the computer is called a sensor.(two separate units mounted in two separate areas with 2 separate functions-one to report to the gauge and one to report to the computer). They should have no problem with that. If you have further problems write back and say so...I'll get you the GM number you need. I have it in stock on my shelf but I'm at home currently and not at the shop! Merry snipped-for-privacy@peru-motors.com

dennis-tugboat or? did some research and if you've got(probably) one wire to the t/sender you need GM # (or equiv.)#25036807-ACDelco #213-70. If you've got a 2 wire sender(doubt it) you need a GM #
25037332(ACDELCO #213-77). That should do it unless someone has screwed up the wires to it(doubt it but...) Anywho....good luck, Merry Christmas and now back to my problems...let me know-and probably GO Packers!(right???)jptugboat wrote:
