Can someone tell me where the theremo time switch is located on the straight six, how to diagnose, remove and replace? Also, how do I remove and replace the Cold Start Valve? Yes, I have searched the forum and found no info on remove and replace.
At the rear of the block, on top....it is a green colour with two prongs sticking out. It is the only green coloured sensor on the block.
A 22m deep thin wall socket will be required to remove.
If engine is hot when removing, release the water system pressure by opening the rad reservoir cap half-turn.
The cold start valve is located between injectors 3 and 4 on the intake manifold and is simply removed by removing the 5mm allen bolt. The electrical plug simply unclips off and the fuel line is undone using a 12mm or 14mm spanner. Remove the fuel line before removing the 5mm allen bolt holding down the injector.
