Title: Sensor near the top cambelt cover
Post by: robdf2 on February 03, 2011, 01:33:04 pm

Hi Guys does anyone know what the sensor is and does that is located (looking at the front of the engine) just under the air box cover on the left hand side next to the cabelt top cover , it goes in at a slight angle.
Had to have the seal replaced because oil was pissing out , just want to know should the sensor be in oil?

Rob.
