Thanks for this latest production& sharing of another 3.8L V6 ! So, very unlikely they have factory' O2 sensors as that unit matches mine with the bung'hole presumed position. And as another u'tube viewer mentioned to me, not likely factory' o2s in a '82 ! I will have to resched' some time, and attempt to reach out again, to enlighten R'A' that they are misleading within their online cat', costing me (& others?) $$ for parts not actually req'd for our '82 F-100 3.8L V6 's ! Unless someone out here, can show us a realtime photo(s) or vid' exhibiting' otherwise 🙂

I was hoping to upgrade the temp'gauge sensor offset to the upper of the two freezeplugs that blew out a month ago . Alas the sensor still in place on my' unit was attacked' too often by unknowns, rounding off the nut'form a touch too much. Plus the suppliers sensors' have only two rounded male connectors, where-as the existing contains 3 flat male connectors. I did mention to them if they had matching wiring harness I would also attempt a wiring harness upgrade for the first time. Neither indicated a wiring harness available. Although I may have previously mentioned difficulty of removal of existing temp' sensor, within' our conversation.

My F-100 3.8L V6 M3oT is still in a coma-state' on the drvwy, likely due to the source of the fluid, which is now showing twice amount of fluid on the oil dipstick req'd. ! Ahhhh ohhh, cylinder head gasket compromised !?! Although not of a colour or thickness of the said tell-tale sludge' ! I was hoping to restart it, just to turn it around in the drvway, still in position that a CAA tow truck driver' (thanks to my membership) successfully got it home the evening the freezeplug blew out due to un-forecast blockage or a gasket failure . .... so I can more safely crawl under it without worrying as much of someone tripping/stomping on my legs, when walking by on the city sidewalk. LoL And due to indication of indirect(?) flooding of the oilpan', the engine/cylinders(?) are drowning so unable to start. May have tah take the chance, and carefull drain at least half the fluid' out thru the 'pan (or elsewhere?) so the engine will restart, run long enough to turn it round to face the house' . Knock on wood' p.s. personally prefer to say "coma-state", as "dead" is too finale' sounding !! 8-)

You should pressure wash and clean the engine up really good and paint it before you put it in the truck.
