Quote from: Looney;626832Hang on my bad, I was getting confused there. lol. I thought you guys were talking about the sender under the oil filter. Thats the one I\'ve not got connected. I got the other 2 connected around the filler.

Its simple, if you are on a stock ecu it will go into limp mode if its not getting the engine coolant temp (so it will not run properly) if you have a PFC it proberly would run to a degree (most likely quite rich) but if you look on the controller where it says water Temp there will be a line instead of a number. Also does your water temp work on the dash?

I was fairly sure it was the sensor on the back of the Pump housing as thats the one that was causing us problems (bad connection making the car go into limp)

Yeah, sorry, got the water level and ECU sender connected thats on the water filler housing block. The sender under the oil filter is not connected. Car runs fine, but water temp gauge on the dash does not work, although low level warning does.
 
(I keep speed reading the posts and mis read filler and filter in a few posts above! sorry!)
