Coolant Temp Sensor.
Hi Guys, I am working on this side of the car right now, and I am wondering if this Borg Warner Coolant Temp Sensor could work properly on my car. Thanks for all!!

Yes, that looks like the one. Nice getting the connector. My connector is broken (the retention clip) so I am going to order one also since I am about to redo my entire cooling system.

THANK YOU
The one I got yesterday is the wrong one.
BUT I have also determinded that this sensor is the cause of my problem, not the fan sensor.
This sensor affects two areas of concern in my problem, Throttle positioning and fan coming on & off (if not bypassed by AC on switch).
The fact that I drove the car for 25 miles in perfect smooth harmony, then it went to bad driving condtions when heated up (after shut off, then back on at stationary idle) in short time, leads me to my conclusion. Yet I'm still gonna score a new fan sensor as a just incase. Hope I don't need install that!

Hope you got yours swapped in.
I just drove back with my new one installed and what a treat!
Fan cycles on & off
The car has no more bucking and
All is better due to a lousy $16 sensor!

I am glad that you fixed your car KED85....I changed it last Sat, no problems at all, the connector was in good conditions so there was no need to replace it. They say that the mercury inside the sensor gets old or some, and that is why your car can work wrongly.

I still have some bucking in morning drive time.
So on to next idea.
I'm next gonna do the air inlet temp sensor. That signal also affects the coolant temp sensor I've read.
