There is a discussion on similar issue where jblackburn points to a leak at the gasket over intake manifold, caused by the loose bolt creating vacuum.

This bolt is located close to the rear intake cam. It suggests to re-torque the bolts.

It should sound like a click when ignition is turned on then a whine then another click at around 6 secs then the sound ceases. Normal operation.

I think that sensor is the temperature sender. If the ECU isn't getting an input from it, it probably won't run right because it won't know the temperature of the engine.
