the one wire sending unit is the visual temp dash guage, the two wire sending unit sends temp info to computer ecm,,,maybe there is another coolant plug on the intake check thermostat housing, you could also install a tee in one of the heater hoses, a mechanical guage is the best my opinion ,right now im in the process of installing two oil pressure guages with a brass tee, one will be electrical other mechanical
