Oh my, this sounds like it will turn out to be quite a project for me.  If i don't get to it for a while (a few days), do you think it would be a problem to drive with it as is?
Also, when I go to take this bad wire out ... how the heck do I remove the top connection of it? Obviously the bottom part comes right off of the sendor above the t-stat, but the top portion disappears into a "bundle" of wires and I'm not sure where it ends up. I have wiring diagrams but they're not exactly arranged in a manner that translates well to the actual locations of things in the engine.
