Coolant Level Sensor... where to find one?
I was putting in the koyo radiator today, and when unscrewing the old coolant level sensor (the one on top of the rad next to the fill neck), it snapped in half. Are these just a part that I can pick up at autozone or whereever, or are they "special".

I'm assuming you overtightened it. Lesson learned.

yep... oops. I was looking thru the 88 parts fiche but couldnt seem to find it (to make sure I got the right coolant sensor, since there are 4 of them on the damn car). Does anyone have a part number for this?

Call up Ray at Malloy Mazda at (703) 490-8170. He'll hook you up. Lots of people here get parts from him all the time.

i'll try a junkyard today after work, but I havent had much luck with finding 7's at any of the nearby ones. There was an FB, but it was basically stripped to the frame.
