1988 Turbo II. What is the purpose of the oil thermo unit (threads into the oil pan next to the oil level sensor) and what effect will it have on the car if it's unplugged?

i think they use that for the cold start assist, nothing will happen if its unplugged

I'm pretty sure it's wired straight into the sub-zero cold start assist system. It's just a thermoswitch.
