As per previous thread I have been getting Fuel Temp Sensor probs.

As was, the single wire connector broke on top of the sensor (the spade came off). Now this would obviously give me problems,

 

but

 

When it was disconnected car seemed to run ok? (it was only a short distance).

 

Now is the sensor putting a voltage out or does it just work on resistance?

Also, if wire is disconnected, would the resistance/voltage be so low ignition timings retard, etc. Does the ECU work out water temp is warm so fuel temp resistance but me at a certain OHMs.?

 

I just want to prove if its sensor or wiring.

John - is that on the engine - by - numbers in the FAQ

If you go all the way to the left from 19 it's the black box right against the inner wing.

John, is there any chance of msg ing me your mobile in case I have a prob later on? :)

There's a vac line runs from the balance bar into the nest of hoses on the drivers side - tee it into that line :)
