Default Re: Engine Coolant Temp sensor - failure symptoms?

when this happens the fuel pump also gets very noisy

thought it was fucked but i put on a new GpA badboy yest and its still the same!

Chop, don't you remember, you were in my car at Croft when my car showed the symptoms.... stuttering and missing, because of a duff coolant temp sensor. Got it changed and it was fine after that.
