ok so i would assume that it is not used.
does anyone no what it is for.
ford has put it there for a reason.????
i thought it was for a e c t (engine coolant temp ) sensor
the ford workshop manual said it was in the thermostat housing
but my thermostat housing has a blank hole where it should be.
if this is not it.. where is my ECT....
any help would be appreciated.

thanks .... icon_confused.gif icon_confused.gif
