Broken connector on front of waterbridge
Found this today. Sits just on the PS of the thermostat.
May have happened today, maybe earlier. The supercharger gets wedged right into it.
So what did I break and how do I fix it?

Not sure on your MY, but it looks like the two pronged Temp I Sensor (to gauge). I had to replace my female end of my Temp II gauge. It was similar to the Temp I sensor connector and similar to what you have pictured. I found some harness/connector website somewhere and I could have gotten it there, but I called Roger and had exactly what I needed (for the same price) in but a few days.

Replace it. It is only $100. I replace mine today and made a world of difference; in other words, it starts without a fight and doesn't lose power and surge when warming up. It also made my fuel gauge work.....

Forgot to mention it is a thermotime switch like Colin says. You need a deep 15/16 inch socket to get at it and you need to remove the front fuel pressure damper to get at it and I recommend replacing it while you are in there
. Have fun

So, help me out. If this is the thermotime switch, on the front side, what is the plug on top? I know which one the gauge sender is, but then what is the other one?
The Forgotten On, thank you, but my damper has been relocated to accommodate the blower. No longer in the way.

Only the connector is broken isnt it, not the sensor itself? Super glue it back together when you have all the plastic bits off the pins.

Rog has these connectors in stock with boot and pins. Just replace it and don't worry about it for another 30 years.
