Can't find the correct location sensors

Hello fellow ranger owners

I've got a 94 2.3L lima and need some help finding the temp sensors on this engine.... i can't locate a good picture of either sensor anywhere on the net.. maybe im just not searching right. the only sensor i can find is inline on the heater core tube coming from T-stat housing. (I do have the T-stat housing that puts this said sensor closer to the eng) but Im not sure what sensor this actually is.??

thanks for the time with this.

Dave

The Temp Gauge on dash uses a Sender, usually a Red/white stripe wire

Computer temp Sensor(ETC) uses Light Green/red stripe wire, also Grey/red

They moved both around on the 2.3l

Sender can be on heater hose or drivers side towards the back of the engine with Oil Pressure switch

ECT is often drivers side towards the front just under the intake manifold, look thru wheel well
