I have a 99 3.0 flex fuel. i recently sprung a leak in the t shaped elbow that holds the coolant temp sensor and threads into the intake manifold due to neglected corrosive coolant. I just replaced this part because jb weld stopped working; i also replaced the temp sensor because it was frozen onto the old elbow. Anyways after replacing the stuff and throwing in new coolant now the temp gauge isnt working. Is there a time period for it to break in or did the thermostat maybe get messed up with an air pocket since i put new fluid in? judging by how corroded the elbow was im sure anything could have gone out but sensor and thermostat seem like the only things that would keep the gauge all the way cold. any thoughts?
