Cheers guys, thats why i love there forums...
Will one from Euro Car parts be ok?

the reaon im changing it is....although my temp gauge reads 90, the cat does not seem to blow hot air, more quite warm and i believe the climatronic relies on the temp sender to function fully, also she seems a little spluttery when fully warm on the gauge...
Iv changed the stat and checked water pump for good flow and all seems good so temp senson is my next option.
