2001 V6 Coolant Temp Sender Location?
 

My gf's Camaro overheated and we had it towed home. After trying to troubleshoot why It wont start I saw people saying a fault or melted Coolant sensor will cause it to not start.

So my question is Where are the located. most importantly the one for the PCM. link to a picture would be nice.

Thanks in advance if you can help

if its the sensor I think you're talking about its right under the throttle body

I checked the coolant temp sensor it appeared fine I cleaned it off and checked the ohms which were fine. 2,500ohms @ about 75 degrees

At first after we towed it home I had it running for a few minutes it was rough at idle and was less rough at around 3k rpm and I had the heater on. I lowered the engine Rpms and the car died. After that and the following day the car would start and be very rough and only stay on for 5-10 seconds and die

A mechanic friend of mine said its the fuel pump that went on the car. We had a p0440 error a few weeks ago and replaced the gas cap thinking that was the error. Not I'm wondering what made the fuel pump go.

The GM shop Manual days a fault fuel tank vent valve could cause the pump to be damaged.

Does anyone have a radiator pressure check device and adapters and a hand operated vacuum pump with the adapters?

fuel pumps fail every day in GM vehicles all over the world, nothing directly makes them fail.

Thanks that's reassuring lol. My friend said its the ethonal in the gas did it when I called him back.

I see I'll have to pull the exhaust out and such. I looked over a list of what has to be done. Do you have an idea of how long it will take and the manpower.

I'm just really weak now from spinal surgery a few weeks ago so its harder on me to fix cars. I would have probably had the damn thing dropped if I wasn't in the spot I'm in.

yea fuel pumps always go and are a bitch. my sisters old 02 v6 went at about 60k miles. ive done a few in third gens, same design as 4th gens, drop the exhaust, rear, and finally the tank
