On the top of the engine there is a temperature sensor with 2 wires running to it, the wire connector is in a "T" shape, I disconnected my wires and now don't know which is which, (oops) can someone tell me which colour connects to the top bar of the "T" and which colour connects to the vertical bar?

Thanks!

If the two tabs are oriented to make a "T" and tab 'A' is the top stroke and tab 'B' is the down-stroke, then tab 'A' is the one which feeds the temperature gauge on the dash, and tab 'B' connects to the ECU.

Tab 'B' is the one which the ECU uses to interpret whether or not to fire the glow plugs.

According to the schematics: Light Green wire goes to the dash; Yellow Green goes to the ECU.

do you happen to have the colours? tracing the wires is a pain (especially at -29c!)
