As just about anyone who owns a car will know, it’s extremely important to keep your vehicle’s engine within its normal operating temperature. Run your car too hot and you can end up with serious and expensive engine damage while running a car that’s too cold (not really an issue here in Australia!) can result in cracked blocks and a whole list of other disasters that you wouldn’t wish on your worst enemy. Your vehicle’s engine cooling system is tasked with preventing such disasters. It relies on its sensors to relay temperature information to the ECU which can then make adjustments to the fuel/air ratio, ignition timing, and operation of the electric cooling fan to avert disaster. The cooling system’s ‘man on the ground’ so to speak is the coolant temperature sensor which measures the coolant temperature and interacts with the ECU to keep everything at its proper operating temperature. Fuelmiser makes an extensive range of these coolant temperature sensors which work with just about everything on four wheels.

If you’ve noticed any erratic temperature readings on your dash, overheating, or bad fuel economy and engine performance your coolant temperature sensor may have a fault. Installing one of the Fuelmiser coolant temperature sensors sold by Automotive Superstore is a simple and inexpensive way to fix this problem and ensure that your engine stays at a happy temperature at all times. Replacing the faulty sensor with your shiny new Fuelmiser unit is often as simple as unplugging and removing the old sensor and plugging in the new one. Fuelmiser’s wide range of coolant temperature sensors fit all makes and models from domestic to European to Japanese vehicles.
