Hi, it depends on the year and engine code if it uses cylinder head temp or a seperate water temp sensor (not the one for dash gauge) if you can find the eng code and contact me on the mail address I left on previous post, I can tell you 1 the sensor, 2 the values to expect from it at various temp's.

Hi, managed to trace your original Q, the glow-plug timing is not dependant on Air temp as was originally stated it is based on the on your engine cylinder head temp, that is fed to the ecu to determine the duration of the glowplugs on heat timing and affects the pump fueling amounts (like putting the choke on an old petrol car) if the sensor is telling the ecu the engine is warm/hot it will only put the power to the glowplugs for a few seconds and set the injector pump fueling for a warm/hot start, hence your cold start problems.
