Thanks, Dennis, sorry for the dumb question. There is a temp 2 sensor. A rose is a rose is a rose, but a temp 2 sensor is a Temp 2 Sensor, Temp II Sensor, Temperature Sensor for Fuel Injection (GoWesty), Coolant Temp Sensor (Van Again), Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor (Bus Depot), Water Temperature Sensor (Van-Again), and Temp II Sensor, ECU (Airhead) . Why should I be confused?
