Yes, the sensor on the left side of the engine with the green 2-pin connector is the coolant temperature sensor for the ECU. The single-pin sensor on the top center of the engine is the thermal switch for the radiator cooling fan.

The temperature sensor for the ECU can cause your fuel ratio to be LEAN or RICH and can cause hesitation, stalling, hard/no starting, or engine stumble. Also be sure to check the connector pins to make sure they are clean, dry and tight. Oil or water contamination in the connector can affect the resistance in the circuit and make the ECU "think" that the engine is colder or hotter than it really is.

most common fault with these cars is a vacumn pipe split or perished ,their is nothing else to throw a light on

Check for ignition voltage at the coil. You will need a test light.

check that the thermostat is opening & closing!
see if water vapour is coming out the tailpipe
DONT top up radiator when its hot! let it cool down first or you will warp or crack the head

hey mate i have the same problem with my applause if u have found a reason for it i would love to hear it thx

Ignition timing should be checked and adjusted whenever spark plugs are replaced or any distributor maintenance is performed. Ignition timing at 1000 RPM or less should be as follows: on 1989 1.3L/4-79 engines, 3-7°BTDC; on 1990-92 1.3L/4-79 engines, 0-2°; on 1.6L/4-97 engines, 1-5°.

u might have a sticky thermostat try takin it out and boil a pot of hot water and place it in if it stays closed or open and doesnt move it needs to be replaced

1. Check your water sensor and plenum temperature sensor.

2. The throttle body has a wax element air valve used for cold idle. As the water temperature increases, the wax element closes the idle fast port. Being the highest part of the coolant system you may have an air lock, which can be solved by bleeding the hoses on the throttle body.
