Re: eng temp sensor

just because the fan doesnt come on doesnt mean its over heating.

the dash gauge and the coolant temp are two different things kid.

the sensor on the head(one wire) is not the sensor that tells your fan to come on.

Re: eng temp sensor

My temp gauge always goes and pins itself in the redzone, no matter what it climbs up there in about 2 minutes, manual gauge read 190* all day long though

what needs to be replaceD?
