Hi,

I would be happy to help, but I will need the engine size. If you look below, I attached information related to the options.

Take a look and let me know what you have.

Take care,

Joe

Hi,

A 6.0L wasn't offered, Chances are you are referring to a 5.9L 360CI engine. If I am correct, the engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor is installed into a water jacket at the front of the intake manifold located near the rear of the alternator. See pic 1 below

The remaining pictures are the directions for the removal and replacement of the sensor. Take a look through them and let me know if it helps or if you have other questions.

Take care,

Joe

See pics below. Note: I deleted the new post you sent to avoid confusion.
