Hello World,
So my '73 2.0 started acting like it had vapor lock again which is not likely since I relowed the fuel pump up front which totally cured that problem. So out of nowhere it started to not want to start after a several minute drive. Would finally start again after a 10-15 minute wait but this behavior had disappeared since the fuel pump relocation and is now back again. I thought I would use my BG cleaner machine on the throttle body which usually works wonders and noticed that I had a broken wire going to the head temperature sensor on the plenum, which I am told is called the head temperature sensor 2. What exactly does this sensor do and what do my symptoms sound like to you guys? Appreciate the help. Thank you and best regards, gg |

Early models without TS2 sensors if the ECU sees no ground the car will not start. This would apply to the 1.7 engine running D-jet
