Sean, or whoever else wants to chime in;
Here's some pics of what I've got, please tell me if I'm right, correct where necessary and fill in any blanks for me.
My understanding is I need to check/change the sensor, #17, in the last photo, correct?
These first three are under my hood:
In this pic:
#1-The blueish/green is
vacuum for the distributor?
#2- The brass colored single wired one is for the
cluster temp gauge?
In this pic:
#3-The white one toward the front with the three holes but nothing plugged into it is for
_____________?
This pic is of the E28 radiator upgrade I installed:
#4-
Auxillary fan? or
___________?
#5-

Just for reference, this is the removed E12 radiator which had the same two sensors on the bottom by the hose port.

Part
#17 Temperature Sensor, Water is the one that sends the
signal to the ECU to regulate fuel volume, depending on engine water temp, correct?
It's attached to the
#03 Additional Air Slide Valve housing under the intake manifold on the driver's side of the engine.
