67 E type eng temp. sensor resistance

Car: 1967 Jaguar Etype S1 4.2
Does anyone have the sensor temp. vs resistance curve or chart for this unit? I suspect a bad sensor and would like to investigate.

Sorry to respond so late but I just found some old data. The sensor resistance was calculated after measuring the voltage across and the current through it.

40C 335 ohms
50 158
60 122
70 88
80 66
90 45

Quite non-linear. I believe the results would be different and inaccurate using an ohmmeter. Hope this helps.
