Coolant temperature sensor location that is all I need to know. Where I can find it to put a new one in and so I can salve my over heating problem. That is the only problem I am having.

I do not think it has a coolant temperature sensor but rather a cylinder head temperature sensor. Ford did that on several of their vehicles. Diagrams for both engines are below.
