Default What sensors are in the intake?

Beings I got the Air gap I'm gonna have to put all the sensors in it. I was kinda thinking getting all new ones. What ones are in the intake that I will need?

If you don't count the three on the throttle body...

The IAT (Intake Air Temperature) sensor is in the front top, the Coolant Temp Sensor is in the front kind of by the thermostat, and then theres the CPS in the back, IIRC the passenger side.

I'm sure others will pipe up with any I missed.

The IAT is the same as the Air charge temp sensor right? and by CPS do you my the Crankshaft position sensor? That would be the one in the tranny not the intake.


If that is the one your talking about how often do they do bad? That sucker is like 94 bucks alone. If they are prone to issues I'll change it but geeze

My apologies on the crankshaft position sensor. I thought I remembered reading it was right by the transmission in the manifold. Its pretty rare, from what I've read, but not unheard of for them to break.

Yes, IAT is the same as the air charge temp sensor. They are pretty cheap.

Id check the coolant temp sensor. Mine was broken before i pulled it out, and the one that came on my M1 was broken as well.
