Replace the water temp sensor which I believe is screwed in the metal water pipe running under the intake manifold and see how you go. |
I gave the mechanic a call today, and apparently he thinks the car runs fine. It could be that when I had my busted water pipe and the cooling system ran dry, it probably fowled up (sorry to state the obvious, but I'm getting to a point.) And the car got a good run yesterday with a belly full of coolant. If the car runs fine still after service and he doesn't replace anything, the first thing I'm doing is replacing that sensor.
