3rd 3sge coolant temp sensor, where is it? Options

[giraffe]

hey, thanks for this sight!

having a problem. sometimes when car is warm it will stall at idle. at a light, or some such. usually not in gear.
if i let it sit a bit, will start back up, but won't start right away.

no codes.

think maybe (i've read it's a possibility) it's the coolant temp sensor.
where is the thing?

(also note, my temp gauge has been occasionally flatlining when the car is warm)


also having problems with idle control valve, but that's another story (i think). that part seems very hard to find for this motor in the states.
pita.

thanks!

idle fluctuates when cold. steady when warm but sometimes at 900, others it will stay at 1800.
