I neede to replace this on my 1994 1.8 RSi....
Got the old one out no worries, when replacing with new I got carried away and snapped the bloody thing off flush with the block :(
Any ideas/help with removing it so i can try again ????
Thanks Keith.....
So a new one of these will sort my problem then ?
Struggling to see how a water temp sensor makes the car stall when the throttle is depressed, and why would it work after a few attempts (the water doesnt get any warmer:S )
Confused :S:S
I am having a fookin nightmare with my RSi at the moment:mad:
It starts fine but the moment you depress the accelerator it stalls :dapprove:
After a few attempts it does eventually get going, this is baffling me :S
It does this when its been left for a few hours, starts and goes fine if only...

I have by-passed it for now, but was wondering how important it is, as a local Renault guy has said he has...
Have thought about getting it welded/brazzed, but i have found another small hole in it now, so how long before another hole appears somewhere else:dapprove:
I am in the building industry and have also thought about replacing the part completly with copper pipe or even plastic push fit ;)

The part the guy ordered was the wrong one :dapprove:
Have gone into Renault (Taunton) today with the part and the guy says he cant find a parts number for that bit (as you said Brian), he is going to try to sort it out in the morning (fingers crossed)
The coolant was changed on Tuesday this week :dapprove:
My top rad hose sucks in (completly over 5,000rpm) have been told its just old and needs replacing (£40 from Renault:dapprove:)
