The engine starts up good and it runs perfect and its not connected because its broken.......should I get a new one or is that sensor really not necesary?

From what I know, when my reference "position" sensor broke, after a certain temperature the car will turn off or engine stopped running. If I remember correctly, my car turned off when the temp was between 90-100.
Hope this helps.
