Varied the experiment this morning. I pulled the tube off connecting the air filter box to the fender. Moved the sensor that was inside the fender well and hooked it up to the transmission dipstick so it was sitting right in front of the inlet to the air filter box. Took a trip into town for parts, about 4 miles. Truck sat for 10 - 15 minutes, then drove home taking an extended drive. Total distance from home to town and back again was 13 miles. Outside air temperature was 35 degrees. Highest recorded temperature of air at intake inlet was 65 F. BUT, air temperature inside filter box ranged from 70 F to 80 F, and stayed near 80 F after the truck was fully warmed up, near the end of the trip. Stomped it a few times but never got the temp to go below 75 F. I was suprised how much warmer the air was when pulling it from this location. I want to try making a modified inlet so I am pulling the air from different locations, as noted in the first post.
