aw man, so im still getting p0125 aka insufficient coolant temp
whats the deal here
so i change out that one peice that goes from radiator hose to engine to firewall 2ith 2 sensors in it, reset my error codes so the MIL turns off, go for my wonderful 50 mile drive, and 56.4 miles later, WAM, MIL again.
ps, the plastic flange thing i changed, the seal was royally SCREWED (1/2 was missing) so i THOUGHT that was it, but i guess not.
could it be the coolant tempature sensor?

OBDII =

the coolant sensor would have been my first guess, well, my second after checking the wiring to the sensor first for corrosion.

I'm not sure why "ODBII" would be the enemy - the faulty sensor would be the "enemy".....
