I'm Carlos from Argentina. The water temperature sensor is on the cylinder head.

Those ignition coils are changed in pairs, 1 and 4 and 2 and 3; it won't work to change them all at once... the Chinese ones don't last at all.

What I would do is check if the timing belt is set correctly. If it's out of time, it can cause instability, resulting in a deficient vacuum and potentially excess fuel.
