What did you need to dismantle to get to the temp sensor?
How long did it take?
Any special tools?
Is the sensor located near the rear of the engine on the passenger side?

you can see the sensor on the left side blue connector, this is where is located ..
to access it, I removed completely the plastic throttle body hose down from MAF
the sensor is hold by clip which you can remove easly with flat screwdriver, and then pry out with hand the sensor, I put lot of towels around the coolant will drain but not much.. after that put new o-ring and installed the sensor and put back the clip reconnect and after that did the throttle body cleaning
