Rick's 1991 Silverado

That is very odd.

That's odd. Try the one on the head next

That means I have to replace the piece that actually goes into the block? Not just disconnect and connect...

If you have one in the head, use that. I'm not sure if these trucks came with them in the head. I only had the stock engine in my truck for a month before I went full race truck

Oh ok, ya mine has one in the head but I don't want to take it out, and replace it only to find out the engine won't start. Maybe I'll just try disconnecting it and starting it. And running around for a bit with it unplugged. I have to check out your truck lol.

The temp sender shouldn't make your truck not start

I'll take a pic of where I put it in tonight.

That's screwed up. It's like the computer is not letting it stsrt because it's not getting a temp signal. Have you thought about using the oem sender but wiring it to the gauge

Ya I'm not sure, I'm thinking that the sensor sends info back to the computer. It almost looks like the engine flooded.

I gotta bet if you look at the wiring diagrams, the temp sensor will be integrated a lot more than you think
