Default sensor problems???????????Help

Alright....where to begin...

Well...to start things off, my car when trying to start, It wont. After about 5 mins of trying, it will finally start up. Once it does, i get a strong smell of gas.

Now once my car is cranked up for a while, It starts bogging down and when i give it some gas, it sputters, and then finally revs up. And while this is going on, my temp sensor reads nothing. its flat on its face. But once the temp guage comes back up to 210 degrees, the car act right like nothing is wrong. ? Is this a sensor problem or what? im dont know where to begin.

The sensor is the problem. When it stop working the computer thinks the engine is -40F and you should see what happens to fuelign when this happens. Can you say 6-8:1 AFR.
