Mutil-Function Temp Sender - Ops Check?

[robert_a_dupree at bankone.com]

I am 99% sure that the ECU does indeed care about the MFTS.  As it is a
critical test component on the diagnostic list for the WGFV.
Maybe I read the Bently wrong...

not so fast.   IIRC the ECU doesn't care about the MFTS (Multi Function
Temperature Sensor for those not versed in acronyms).  It uses those
little single pin temp sensors (one in the head, one in the coolant
neck) to monitor the running temp of the engine.
