What tools do i need to remove the coolant temperature sensor on 98 explorer?

To remove the coolant temperature sensor on a 1998 Ford Explorer, you'll need a few basic tools: a ratchet with a socket set (typically a 19mm or 21mm socket), a wrench for any tight spaces, and possibly a flathead screwdriver to help disconnect any wiring harness clips. It’s also advisable to have a catch pan to collect any coolant that may spill during removal. Lastly, make sure to have some rags handy for any spills or cleanup.
