Am I right in thinking that the sender on top of the thermostat controls the fan and the sender at the rea of the engine is linked to the ECU. Is there a third sender for the dash temperature guage.

Thanks

900 sounds good to me!
Might be worth adjusting the idle screw at somepoint.

That's right on the temp sensors.
The one on the thermostat is just a switch and turns the fan relay on and off.
At the rear the 2-pin one goes to the ECU, and the one with a spade connection goes to the instrument cluster.
