that missing sensor is for the coolant temp gauge, exactly the same sensor as the unused one. So move that one and fit a blanking plug.

after jet washing dirt and removing all the grease etc from the subrfame we masked it up on a bed sheet vocky left round :lol: hope he doesnt want it back!!

Thats an awfully tight angle on that coolant return hose out of the header tank. Is it flowing properly?
