So i swapped TB on my 3100 to a 3400 and since i was there and i had gotten a code for it i swapped the ect sensor mainly because it was easier to get to with the TB off, so i put the new sensor and TB on, start it up. Runs fine no problems.
While im on my way home i notice that the temp gauge on the dash is reading higher then normal, so why first thought was that i put air in the cooling system. so i bleed the system, pull it under a vacuum(holds fine no leaks). Run the car again, same problem so i put the old ect back in and now its reading normal.
I hooked my scanner up and was watching what the computer says the temp is and compared to the gauge on the dash, there no where close
So my questions are-
Is what i think normal really wrong because the sensor is bad, and it really runs that hot?
Which reading is right and witch is wrong?
Thanks
