I know. I'm only sixteen and i got the car for free. My dad has spent upwards of $2000 on the car for me, I've been having himoreder stuff so i can replace things. i've done suspension, interior, brake, and suspension bushings. I've dropped the tranny a few times too. i've done eveyrthing with myself and a friend or him except for rebuilding the tranny.
He wants to fix the cold start system now. So i said fine.

woee, 16

I wish I was that age again
there is no way to repair that wire? or did it break off right at the sensor?

if a N/A uses the same one as the TII I have one for ya
good luck and be careful (I remember those days )

Sorry.....but the oil thermo sensor does ....squat. It's not worth the dime you spend on it.

Its only function was for the SUB-ZERO STARTING SYSTEM.....which a factory service bulletin recommended for removal a looooooooong time ago. About the time you were born. It's NOT for the cold start system which is another thing altogether.
