Quick question on temp sensor wire colour

[Claude]

Spent the day sorting the 411-s1. Quick question:

Can someone go out to their V8 Bristol and have a look at the temperature sensor wire to see what colour the wire going to the sensor on the engine is (near the distributor). It should either be green or yellow. Right now, the wire going to my sensor is green. My temp gauge is showing a rapid rise to red, but it is uncertain if this really is an overheating engine or bad information being sent to the gauge. Before I tear into it, I want to make sure that the last person who touched my motor did not reverse some wires.

I have some of the wiring diagrams, but not one for the temp sensor and gauge. If someone has posted that on the web, let me know.

Latest development on the car... removed the petrol tank, dumped half a bucket of gone-off fuel, leak tested it, and then reinstalled. Car now running on a proper fuel tank instead of a plastic 5 litre one strapped in the spare tyre bay. Noticed the sway bars attached to the rear diff were not bolted on. Wonder what else has been left undone.

Appreciate a reply on the wire colour, and also, please indicate your model, in case some are different from my 411-S1
