Yes, the sensor the computer uses is the two-pin sensor with a black body, not the easy to access single-spade sensor used for the gauge. The parts sites all have problems with nomenclature.

You can get to this ECT using a 19mm deep socket and 10" 3/8"-drive extension after taking the AMM plumbing out, saving the work of removing the intake manifold and gasket, if you're at all comfortable with blind wrenching. By that, I mean you look at it with a flashlight and mirror, and then reach in with tools.

There are ways to confirm the sensor or its connector/wiring are the problem before replacement. Are you interested?
