This is what you use.

yes, that's right a paper clip. Simply stick it between TEN and GND and turn your key to "on" position and count "check engine light" flashes.

Re: sputtering after check engine lite comes on and turns of
alright so it flashed 9 times meaning the coolant temp sensor can someone show me a diagram of where that should be or is that in the middle of the head in the back under the intake manifold? is it the fan sensor that is on the thermostat housing? if someone can tell me whats up or show me a diagram. i know that i got all new sensors though. i dont know how it could just go bad like that ALSO i dont get how that is the cause of the sputtering and the lack of power and at times unresponsive throttle and engine dying and hard to start. it might be the reason i smell coolant though. i get blue smoke when i first start the car then it goes away. its a head i got off ebay and a new headgasket twice ive done it.....

Re: sputtering after check engine lite comes on and turns of
what is that? it doesnt show me the location of the coolant temp sensor or the location of the fan switch sensor
its odd because i get blue smoke when i first start the car it goes away i smell coolant and ive replaced the sensor in the back of the head in the middle thats on the block (really hard to see)

Re: sputtering after check engine lite comes on and turns of
