Where is the coolant sensor on a 2001 Mercury Sable and is it possible to replace it without replacing the entire coolant reservoir?
NOTE: this answer is describing the location of the engine coolant temperature sensor - NOT the coolant sensor in the reservoir that warns when the level gets too low.The coolant temperature sensor is located directly adjacent to the thermostat housing. The thermostat housing is what the upper radiator hose (toward the right side of the engine compartment) connects to. You do not have to replace the reservoir to replace this part, but leaky coolant reservoirs are a common problem on this model.

My 1999 Ford Mustang GT coolant sensor light is on and coolant is full. Is the sensor replaceable or do I need to replace entire coolant reservoir?
The low coolant sending unit is integral to the coolant reservoir. I just called two dealers, they were both $117 for the reservoir(!!). Before replacing, try cleaning the contacts on the connector, and also try cleaning the sensor in the reservoir with a long bursh before spending that much money.

What causes coolant to backup and spill over in the reservoir until its all gone?
the reason why the coolant is spilling up over the reservoir is because the thermostat needs to be replaced because when the engine needs water the thermostat heats up from the engine and causes the springs to expant which opens a seal to allow the water throughout the engine i just realpaced the thermostat in my volkswagen
