[QUOTE="swshawaii, post: 989477, member: 67547"] I know the two sensor housing was used on the earlier ST's. I read a thread somewhere that it's used on non flex fuel models. Return the two port (RH144) and get the single port (RH148) housing, along with the DY1004 ECT sensor, and the lower and upper housing seals. Be careful with the three guide tabs on the lower housing, and if available, use a right angle plier for the bypass hose clamps. The sensors are a compression type seal that uses a donut shaped o-ring. Problem is the sealing edge gets deformed and flattened. I've never heard of anyone reusing the old sensors without leaking. I searched for replacement o-rings without success. Also tried silicone RTV, but they both seeped after a few months. If you don't have the new ECT sensor, it would be a good idea to have it on hand. P.S- Sensor price ranges from $20-$35 each. :angry: [/QUOTE]
