Difference between Coolant Temp. Sensor/Sender?
My coolant temp guage does not work at all, just sits there. I am trying to order a replacement from rock-auto.com. They have a coolant temperature sensor AND a coolant temperature sender, both of which look identical. One is around $10 bucks, the other is $40. I know that one goes directly to the gauge from the driver's side of the head, and the other one goes to the engine's computer. Which one do I need for a dead gauge?

And the temperature sensor for the Gauge is located at the rear of the head as is shown above.
These are the 1st gen Cummins diesel engines (Bosch rotary VE injection pump).
