The temp2 sensor provides engine/coolant temperature information to the ECU so it can provide the proper air/fuel mixture at a given operating temperature. It is located in the left front of the engine compartment on the left side of the thermostat housing. A second temperature sensor is located on the front of the housing that connects directly to the temperature gauge on the dashboard. My sensor was telling the ECU that the motor was cold even after it had been run, so when you tried to restart, it would provide extra fuel and flood the motor. Good luck,
