No, just the left.

I drove ~50 miles today.  Gas mileage still seems poor.

I checked Temperature Sensor I (in the head), here are some readings I got:
1588 ohms - outside temp ~62F, engine cold
1300 ohms - outside temp ~70F, engine cold
0530 ohms - started car for a minutes to check "hot" reading

Temperature Sensor II read:
350 ohms - outside temp ~62F
200 ohms - car was "hot" as above

Temperature Sensor I seems low based on this thread:

Are the specs in Bentley?  I didn't see them in the Fuel System section.

Replace Temperature Sensor I?  If yes, should I buy new (~$20) or ?
