106690, Intake air temperature sensor X performance
Posted by turbosrule, Jun-18-09 07:43 PM
How much does this IATS effect the overall performance

I WAS getting a CEL three 43
a 23 and 32

well got rid of the EGR code with the (resistor mod)
not getting the miss any more (43)(checked and replaced loads of stuff)

checked the wire harness looks ok?
cleared code (Replaced the Intake air temperature sensor)

No CEL for a day! whoa!
Code 23 is back and I am getting a bit of hesitation here and there!

heres what I am running
stock injectors
SFMU dark spring 3.72 disk
HRC FCD
8 lbs. boost on forged internals till I get the bugs worked out.

So the IATS assists the ECU as it tries to produce an optimum air-to-fuel ratio for the engine.

can anyone confirm this finding..?

I guess this is my hesitation

That is correct.

Yes. The IAT factors in to the air density affecting the amount of fuel injected.

After I installed my MegaView it is interesting to watch when I am in traffic how as the IAT reading rises the AIRCORRECTION value percentage lowers.

I had a short in the wire
no more CEL
