that harness is supposed to run by the coolant filler neck....
far as i remember the green wire was for the coolant temp switch, the switch is just for A/C cooling fan operation anyways so if your A/C is non operational i wouldn't even worry about it.

On the top of the housing is a water temerature Switch. A single wire connector. The color is green/black. It turns on/off the auxillary fan in front of the radiator if the car came equipped with a aux fan.
There is a water thermo sensor on the Back of the water pump housing that has two wires. One green/white and the other brown/black (possibly pure black on a 88).
So if you see a single wire with connector and the colors are green/black, you know what it is.

I'm confused on which wire. Green/Black sinle wire is only a/c related on the whole.
The one under the alt on the back of the water pump housing is for the ECU and is called a water thermo sensor and is NEEDED by the ECU. Actually two wires on that one. One green/white and the other black or maybe brown/black
