I just changed the dual temp sensor for the LH 2.4/ezk. The ECU said it was faulty and it was starting and running very rich. It seems to be starting better, but I was a bit concerned about how much coolant leaked when I changed the sensor. I only got a few drops and I was expecting a steady stream.

I am worried because I just replaced the head, due to severe warpage from coolant starvation. The PO or his mechanic decided to use some type of gasket sealant when they changed the head. It worked its way into the coolant passages and overheated the head. I thought the coolant passages were clear,but now I am not sure.

So how much coolant should leak when you take that sensor out?
