the temperature sensor passed all tests with both voltage and ohms. Including warm-up conditions (I watched the ohms and voltage decrease in value, within range of values at link), I also unplugged the sensor to check wiring, and that test passed.

I wonder if this indicates possibly bad cold start valve or ECU... I'll keep investigating. It still starts much easier with the cold start valve unplugged.
