Default Help-Broke down AGAIN

a little history, week ago breaks down(thought opti) was sensor that goes into w/pump $20, yeah. Go fot a cruise today all of a sudden starts buckin,difital temp readout says LO then goes back to normal temp like 185-190,head for home does it acouple of times again,then stalls,cant restart,goof around w/sensor wires it restarts drive home.Owners manual says if it says LO means the temp is below 32,95 ambient motor 190or so,I feel this sensor is bad again semms right to me.Any thoughts?Oh yeah when it stalled check eng. came on,when i finnally got restart was off.Sorry this is so long. :confused:
