okay well crx w/b16 when i got it it would idle at normal temp but as soon as the revs go up the temp goes down... i replaced the thermostat and its still doing it... rigtht now on the freeway the car drives all the way to C. could it be something to do with skunk2 intake manifold? could it be the sensor? i already bleed the system like 4 times... anybody got any ideas???

 

Sounds like a bad ect sensor.

I don't know if that's the actual name for it, but yea, it definitely sounds like the 1-wire temp sensor.

 

wheres the sensor at?

 

On the end of the head, near the distributor. The ECT sensor has a 2-wire plug, and that's for the ECU, but that's not the one. Nearby is a smaller sensor with only one wire, that's the sender for the temperature gauge, which is the one you want.
