Both sensors control fuel mixtures.

Also if your temp sensor is suffering from heat soak its probably needs replacing. I did some testing on your situation this afternoon and there is no way for the sensor to be effected by heat out side the manifold.
All the sensors I have available have the thermistor insulated from the outside in a copper/brass tube. So its only the end of the tube thats is really sensitive to temp change.

so you found that the sensor was only sensitive to the temperature on the very end?... interesting, i might do some testing of my own.

maybe my problem is that the sensor is not well insulated.
The sensor is actually a GM coolant temp sensor. the outside appears to be made from brass. i might try to insulate it from some heat as an experiment.
