bit late but looks like the temp sender wire to me, look for a small hex nut with a central brass pin with what looks like a round pin sticking out the middle, get some one to turn on ignition and watch temp gauge whilst you touch this wire agaisnt an earth point, if gauge goes right up then this wire will go on the hex temder item i just mentioned. once engines running check to see if gauge starts to creep up to normal temp .

hope this helps shark1e
