Glad to hear it. I case you're wondering, you would've had to check all grounds that the wiring diagram shows that are involved in the circuit.

Where is the sending unit for the temp gauge on a 22re? is it the one on front with the cold start or is there another one?

The one in front of the manifold next to the cold start is for the ECU.
The one for the gauge is in the middle of the manifold (front to rear).
Lower plenum, on top. It's close to the valve cover.

Note, don't test your gauge by shorting the connector straight to ground. That's a great way to drive too much current through it and damage your gauge. Do it through a test lead or test light, which will limit the current.

The sender is on top of the intake dead center, but down in there with the fuel rail. One wire comes out of there. The two on the front are for the ECU and CSI timer with two wires. Use the test light on these.
