Rotary Car Club - View Single Post - Fast reacting IAT sensor replaces stock sensor

DaveW · 09-04-2009, 02:00 PM

I installed the sensor today. The only problems I had were getting my hands/fingers behind/under the UIM to remove the connector from the OE sensor, and to splice the new connector to the harness. I really like the new connector - it seems much easier to connect/disconnect than the OE.

I may be imagining things, but after heat-soaking on purpose to test the effect, I think the engine is now more responsive to throttle than it was with the OE sensor under similar conditions.

Thanks for your help in locating and selling these!

I'll keep you updated if anything interesting happens related to the sensor.
