Broken Engine Temp SENDER need part # PICS INSIDE started the car up today and it died (probably from the cold)waited a min and restarted it, it was real hard to turn over but finally started WITH a SES light. brought out the a-tap and it was a low frequency MAF signal and I think a High signal temp something... anyways I popped the hood to see if the MAFS was unplugged or something and this is what i found :
I need the part # for this, once I cleared the SES it hasn't came back, besides the temp gauge not working and it seems like its trying to hunt for an idle a little is it ok to drive like this?

Re: Broken Engine Temp SENDER need part # PICS INSIDE Call Jim Norman at Jennings Chevy in Glenview on Waukegan and ask for the MFBA discount. He's excellent at figuring out which part you need and MFBA gets parts for 10% over cost. Might take a week or so to get it.
If it's to the immediate left of the #1 plug it's some sort of temp sensor, maybe head temps. It is plugged into the head.

thanks john thats it. I knew it was something to do with a temp sensor considering the temp guage isn't working anymore <img src="gr_sad.gif" border="0"> I don't understand why it would make the car harder to start and hunt for an idle though <img src="images/icons/confused.gif" border="0">

I experienced this the past 2 days after breaking mine this past weekend. The car would start fine when cold, but act like it was flooded when the engine was hot. It didn't want to start. Things are back to normal after replacing the engine coolant temp sensor last night.
