hello guys, I was thinking of making a change to the water temperature sensor

: if I intercept the wiring of the sensor and the lead with a switch in the cockpit, I can switch on and off at will, if I turn the key on with the 'switch off, the ecm reads the value of the lowest possible water temperature, triggering the glow plugs at most, for a better start and after cranking, return the switch to on, so the ecm reads the right value and returns the advance timing, in right condition.
What do you think? contraindications? is it possible?



I tell you this, because I tried to turn on the kj with the sensor disconnected and ...... wow .........


thanks guys :BANANA: :BANANA: :BANANA:

Be more specific. What did the Jeep do with the sensor disconnected? Did it leave the glow plugs on for maximum time then start up better than before?

exactly ....turn the key for cranking and go instantly , it seems that the combustion chamber reaches higher temperatures and triggers best diesel
