Try having a look around the ECT( engine coolant temp sensor) fitting into the coolant passages around the side of the motor near the fire wall. They have a O-ring set underneath them , and are secured with a plastic C-clip. Look around with a flashlight and a mirror with the engine running. Good luck( Oh before you remove the sensor, turn off the engine, release the pressure in the coolant expantion tank prior to removing the sensor).
