Sensor Temp ECTS
Item: ETC8496

$19.95 at Atlantic British. I am checking with Nathan to make sure this is the part. It appears to be it.

and thats the fuel temp sensor? and where exactly is that located?

 

[tommy33]

No, this is the engine coolant sensor. The Fuel temp sensor is back a little bit further closer to the intake. I already changed the fuel temp sensor. That part was about $89 I believe. After changing the fuel temp sensor I still had the problems.

 

[hunkslam]

well, hows the new sensor working? did it fix?

 

[tommy33]

Did it yesterday. Seems like it did the job.

i'm glad someone raised this issue. My ES has the same problem. It always restarts but it runs like a bag of nails until I get it moving and then it runs ok again. I'l have to try this fix myself.
