Temp sender is on the thermostat housing, Will have one wire coming off of it via spade connector.

you want the fire & brimstone or the hippy way.

F&B. head's bent.

Hippy. you may of fitted the thermostat upside down, or it has air under it, causing it to blow the water out..

you need to bleed teh thermostat, easy way is keep the revs up a bit until the thermostat gets hot enough to open
