Probably the original one on the truck. So 24 years. Thank you. I'll check this out.

Yes, I am talking about the coolant temp sensor. I noticed one of the wires was off of the connector harness so I ordered it and the sensor today. The truck seems to warm up ok, it just does that weird surging after a while then if I try to drive it before it stops that it is almost impossible...
