19mm wrench. Its an AC Fan Temp Switch. Might have to call your parts store and explain to them what sensor it is, and a were it is. Its a two prong side by side. The others are 1 prong and 2 prong L shape. Tell them you dont want the 1 prong or the L shape.
Looks like the coolant temperature sensor. It threads out of the water outlet. U might be able to get a wrench on it. If not, you will have to take off the outlet which is not hard at all.

I appreciate the fast reply.. since i now know what it is i was able to find this.. Is it the temp switch or sensor. I think its the switch going from the diagram and the placement of the switch vs the sensor

Tanro is correct, it is the temperature switch. I couldn't remember without seeing the connector attached.
