car wont start

Yesterday I installed a water temp gauge. I took out the honda sensor and put a diff one in. The new sensor Is run directly to the gauge and is grounded. Now when I am doing a cold start the car doesnt want to start and if it does as soon as I hit the gas it dies. It took me about 5 mins this morning to get my car to start and run somewhat normal. It also seems to idle a bit higher. I dont feel any loss in power.

Re: car wont start

try hooking back up the stock sensor and see if the issue goes away, if so, then you know what the problem is
