Pic and engine details would be helpful. Best guess with the limited available information would be some sort of coolant temperature sensor for fuel injection, either TBI or aftermarket.

Still would like to see pics to verify. I'm going to guess you are talking about the sender for the light or gauge. It's in the head. Again guessing the one on the Tstat housing is for the dual capacity accelerator pump. Pics of the senders and your carb with the air cleaner off would be helpful. Reread your first post, it would be like me posting.What size shoes do I need. Posting. Give us enough information to help you. Year of truck,engine,transmission,CA. or 49 states. 85 CA spec would have a completly different carbureator and I don't believe the dual capacity accelerator pump.
