Hello everyone,
I have a 1997 2500 dodge ram, 5.9 engine. resently my gas mileage has dropped from 15 mpg to around 10 mpg, a local machanic told me it could be the ECT sensor. I decided to change out the sensor just to see if he's right but I'm having problems locating it. The one sensor I found was next to the top radiator hose under the alternator but only has 1 wire, doing a search- ect sensors are suppose to have 2 wires , can someone please tell me where the ect is located or on this model did the ect only come with 1 wire?
Thank you very much for any help
