Water Temp. Sensor Removal

["Daryl Smith" <daryl_smith@telus.net>]

I just found that by removing the Thermostat housing and thermostat, you can
reach the end of the sensor inside the head and push it out (punch?) with a
long screwdriver or punch.
Of course this is a last resort and should be preceded with a liberal amount
of penetrating lube.
My sensor was already destroyed and it was the only alternative I had to
drilling it out. And I pretty much beat the hell out of the end that was
accessible.
BUT, it is out with no damage to the head.

Cheers
