For reference, on my 87, 260E, it is the last sensor on the engine, closest to the windshield, because there are more than one coollant temp sensor on my car and perhaps on your car too.

Intersting...as my car started out running real hot
after radiator change its acceptable
Would this be applicable to a 83 SEC?
I'm having the same hot start problem
starts in a nano second when stone cold
but oooh it struggles when the engine is at or even below operating temp.
Depressing the gas petal a bit does not really cure it
Still have the problems
but it does eventually start
but I am draining battery & starter motor
Its a one run car
After that it wants to rest...LOL
Ole timer....
Thanks
