hmmm

well the car did not have any issue like this before i took it off the road

and the only thing i did was freshen up the wiring

everything is soldered and nice, no ghetto ness there

i guess im gonna test the wire when i get a chance.. i dont drive the car every day, ( daily driver mod) soo i can figure this out

just need it ready for the njdsm meet
 

I now own this car and noticed the wiring need some attention. I changed out the ends going to the temperature sensor. The ground wire was swapped with the one that goes to the A/C coolant temp switch. When I checked the voltage on the wires going to the temperature sending unit it was low. The manual I have states 4 or 4.5 volts on the wires(plug). When I checked the voltage using the other green and black wire instead of the one that was wired into the temperature sensor it was correct. Swapped them out. problem solved.
