**Major typo in the title, I know. I'm at school and failboating while my car failboats.**
If the temp sender sensor (brown clip, one prong, two wire plug on passenger side of thermostat cover) is disconnected, is it possible for it to have a rough idle, or is this specific sensor not connected with that type of problem.
My new-to-me car is about to self destruct and that is the only thing I've messed with.
Background of the past two weeks: PO said car was hesitating at about 4-5rpm, probably a fuel filter. I didn't notice the hesitation the first day or so but I was probably being easy on it. Replaced the fuel filter about 2 days later and within about a day, started noticing the hesitation. Fast forward to nothing super out of the ordinary, a week later I started experience a different sounding exhaust tone, along with a misfire on what I believe is cylinder 4 (third from rear). I have been busy with work and out of town, so my dad drove it home and checked some stuff, said the plugs were getting spark, so maybe it was a injector. Now I drove it to work today with the misfire, and after work on the way to school it was just idling sooooo bad and misfire was worse than normal.
I will update more as I think of it, but I'm at school right now...
