Water temperature sensor graph.

    A water temperature sensor, threaded into the intake manifold water jacket, monitors changes in water temperature and transmits a corresponding
signal to the ECC control unit. The sensor houses a thermistor whose resistance decreases in response to a rise in temperature.
