Cool Coolant temp sensor

Need to change the coolant temp sensor on my '94 F150 5.0:
Does it take some kind of special socket to do this? I don't have anything larger than a 13/16" deep socket. Thanks!

Not a "special" one just one big enough to go on it but I can't remember for sure what size.

1" deep socket will do it.

The coolant temp sensor should be on the thermostat housing.
