Water thermo sensor IIRC has to do with fuel due to engine temps.

No I think he means on the thermostat housing itself, not the green connector you are thinking of on the back of the waterpump housing. I *think* it was in operation with the radiator pusher fan.

Do you have a pusher fan? Do you have an Auto? Do you have a TII?

If so then keep it if it works.
