John;
        For Digijet systems(83.5 to 85): The blue bodied, two wire device
is the Temp sensor. It supplies info to the ECU or brain. The smaller,
single wire device next to it is refered as the sender. It controls the
temperature gauge. They are both near the thermostat.

        For Digifant systems(85 to 91): they are still near the
thermostat but both are two wire devices mounted on the coolant
distribution manifold. The ECU's sensor points to the side of the vehicle
and the gauge's sender points to the front.

Drive Safely & Good Luck
