Water temp sensor when plugged in makes car run worse Bought the car non running got it running pretty smooth but I've always felt the car was sluggish and slow but never stalled or had trouble idling I was going over the car again when I realized that sensor wasn't plugged in so naturally I plugged it in and it idles way worse odly enough past 2000 rpm that car feels amazing great power no misfire but anything below that it falls on its face and will try to stall out if the throttle is not held wide open.
