Title: 300tdi Head - What's this?
Post by: John T on August 09, 2006, 14:13:30

Can anyone tell me what the sender is for on the top of a 300tdi head, the one that is half way down the right hand side as you look from the front - is it the temp gauge sender? I need to know, as I've just broken it off.......... :oops:  :oops:

Does that mean if I don't re-connect it, it's same as fitting a blanking plate :?

no,the EGR "could" be stuck in the middle,not reffiting this is the same as pulling the plug of the egr module,fitting a blanking plate & pulling the plug is a better option
