Let us know.

yeah, i think that's my problem. when my engine starts, my rpm was high but i think it is normal for the engine to make the water temperature stable, but for my engine it takes a long time. oftentimes, i have to open the hood and to check the radiator if it is hot enough. what sensor do i have to change? if its the water temp sensor, which one is it? where it is located?

BTW, thank u again guys!
