Help Unknown Broken Sensor
Ok so I blew a head gasket so I have started to take apart my motor to fix it. Today I got the Intake Manifold off and when I pulled it out I found a small black cylinder with a plug on it. It looks pretty important.
My question is what is this sensor so that I can get a new one.

This is where it came from I am pretty sure.
Thanks

Yep, replace it before putting the intake back on - much easier.

ok thanks, when I saw this thing off the back of the motor broken I was thinking that it would be a pretty big deal
thanks
