it's the ptc heater switch- works with the choke

if that sender wasnt hooked up would that cause the choke to stay applied and make it run rich all the time?

It is a PTC switch. LOL, But it is actually an Electric fan turn on switch. I just went through this. It does nothing. Mines been diconnected for two years, then i bought my weber and just capped the wires.
Go to your local autoparts store, in thier computer it will say "Fan turn on switch"

you're kidding...i broke mine when i drained the radiator and someone said i had to have it for the fan to work...if i'd of known it was useless i wouldnt have spent $50 on a new one.
