Where is the engine coolant temperature sensor on a 1980 Chevy Corvette?

The engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor on a 1980 Chevy Corvette is typically located on the cylinder head, near the thermostat housing. However, the *exact* location can vary slightly depending on the engine (350 small block or other).

To be certain, you should:

1. Consult your 1980 Corvette's repair manual: This is the most reliable source. The manual will have diagrams showing the sensor's location.

2. Look closely at the thermostat housing and surrounding area of the cylinder head: The sensor is usually a single-wire or two-wire sensor screwed into a threaded port.

3. If you're unsure, post a picture of your engine bay: Someone familiar with these engines can then help pinpoint it.

Remember to disconnect the negative battery cable before working on any electrical components.
