Well, I usually find 99.9% of my answers using search but no luck on this one. Ok, the usual temp gauge pegged on H, so it is time to R&R the coolant temp sensor (3rd one in 6 years over 3 vipers). But, I busted it off flush with the block while removing it. So two questions:
1) Anyone know of a tool that I can use to get that busted hollow brass plug out (which is full of electric grease by the way and;
2) If I can't get it out and need to take it somewhere to drill it out or whatever, can I cross a wire or something to fool the circuit 'low' so that it thinks it is running pegged (running hot)?
Otherwise it will boil over within 5 minutes with the sensor unplugged. It ran 'fine' with the temp gauge pegged before the R&R attempt so I know it can be a 'workaround'. Thanks ahead everyone.
