What year truck do you have? My 84 just has the temperature sending unit on the intake manifold right behinf the ac compressor. Would asume that years around this had it the same way, I have the 351W.
Hopes this helps

Sounds like the wire to the sending unit fell off, if you're not getting any movement at all. Which engine?
