    may run rough? may go into limp mode etc? as that is the one for the ecu. the other one that the tab clips onto if for your temp gauge.

    if you need a new one let me know i have a few liying around. =)

    cheers

    Why would you even want to know this? Unless you have done it and then you would already know.

    To check it against mine, thats all..

    Yes I do know - the revs pick up a bit but does this happen on other VLs too!!

    if the sender that goes to the ecu isnt working properly, I think the engine runs rich, thinking its cold all the time

    BTW is there any way of telling if it is running rich, the tailpipe is always supposed to be black on unleaded isnt it?
