I'm having having some hot start troubles. The car idles very low and it fluctuates sporadically. After I drive it for a few minutes it runs fine. I'm getting a compresssion test in a week and a half to verify that my engine is still good. Assuming that it's fine (I hope -- only 55k on original engine) I am going to replace the water and intake thermosenors as soon as possible. I know (generally) how to install the water thermosensor, but know nothing about the intake thermosensor.

Does anybody have a pic of the intake (air) thermosensor as well as any other information on installing it (I've searched and found only one thread on this)? Anybody know the part number? Are there any aftermarket ones to consider getting? Thanks in advance.

Here, check these two threads out...Also, look at the service manual that you can get off of the net. The sensor only cost me about $30 CND, so I think they made a mistake because the I'm seeing about $60-$75 US for it.

i can remove it without taking my UIM off, although it is the last thing on my UIM that has a connector on it
