The aftermarket sensor will be fine, price check on eBay and Amazon too. Usually RockAuto is the cheapest for name brand parts though, don't forget to Google the 5% off coupon too. The sender is what your temp gauge reads off of.

The sender is what your temp gauge reads off of. You know I definitely googled that 5% It sounds like the sender is not a necessary buy because my temp gauge is pretty accurate. I will, however, be purchasing the tx40t as that was highly reviewed and potentially a game changer. At daybreak I will try disconnecting the throttle body hose with the car running to see if the theory proves to be the cause of my issue. I noticed it is really difficult to get the hose off, do I just yank and twist and hope for the best? 6gc is still the greatest forum of all time, even all these years later, thank you all for the kind support! -------------------- Brand new 6gc owner!
