Engine Cooling problem
2000 Hyundai Accent 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

My car is rinning rough when in drive. I've changed plugs,wires, air filter and fuel filter with now luck. Was told it could be a coolant temp. sensor! If so where is it located on the engine. Or do you some advice to help

Thanks
