That's pretty dirty coolant you have there, when was the last time the system was flushed?
Do you have any other symptoms of a blown head gasket like pressure in the system, overheating, loss of coolant, milky engine oil?

Your probably fine though I would get that temp sensor fixed.
You want a run down on how to flush the system or you got that figured out?
