What does this go to?

There is a sensor on the back side of the water pump housing, what does it go to? I want to remove it to put in my sensor for my autometer water temp gauge.

It's the water thermosensor. It tells the ECU what the water temperature is. You need it. You can always tap a hole for your new sender.
