I know some of you have run into issues with the climate control not reading the correct outside temperature, and I think I've found another sensor that is also affected. The intake air temperature sensor. These sensors (among others) use a poor round-pin-into-round-hole design. Electrical contact is unreliable at best. My fix was to cut off the connector, modify the sensors for easier access to the prongs, and solder the wires directly to the prongs. Though with the intake sensor I install some stereo connectors (much more reliable) so that I could remove the intake tube without much headache. BIG difference. My engine is responding a lot more consistantly. Not weak one day and strong the next. It is strong all the time now.
Now I'll just need to find any other sensors with the same design...
