Is this the correct one ? They look different...

Re: Intake Temp Sensor

I had my car hooked up to a friends computer and it told me I had an intake temp of 225, so I think this is a problem.

FYI - My intercooler pump has now been hotwired (to remove that out of the discussion). I havent had it back on the machine, but I'm guessing that this should be changed anyway being that its 20 years old ?

Am I on the right track ?

My bad... the one on the right is the old one. the one on the left is the one I got from Advance Auto...

Although they are different is this the correct replacement sensor ?(its supposed to be the one next to the brake booster)

Here is the link...

Re: Intake Temp Sensor

It's the same sensor, the old one just has a cage around it. Did you verify your IC pump is working after the hotwire. My temps stay down around 100F

Re: Intake Temp Sensor

I couldn't read the specs on the sensor. 225 is very hot. Maybe the sensor behaviour characteristic isn't right - linear vs log etc.

The part number is 25036751. They're $15 or so. Maybe try and get that one instead?

As for the IC pump, yeah, 20 year old ICs are pretty old! But if it works, it works! Keep an eye on IATs unless you want to spend $125 or so on the new pump for peace of mind.

Thank you sir, Ill start the install...As far as the pump, the coolant flows well and I hear and feel the vibration with the key on...

Re: Intake Temp Sensor

dont think my intake temps ever went higher than 175* in stock configuration. after the TT chip(eliminates EGR function) and Jason West scoop, i'm roughly cruising around 60* at 45* outside.

I called another Advance Auto and dude said this is not the correct part, it will be 5 days before I can get it.... Sheeet (brother man from "Airplane" voice) !!! I called Oreilly Auto and they have it...


Thank you Gentlemen !

Re: Intake Temp Sensor

So to confirm, the one on the left is incompatible?

Any parts store who doesn't have this in stock ought to close up shop now.

Yep...(In these pix) These are the 2 styles that I saw, the one with the red stripe is the one I used. Dude at Advance Auto said the other was incorrect, I dont know if hes right but after getting the part Number from Quikstop (Thank you sir). I returned the white stripe one and got the one that was closer to stock...

Re: Intake Temp Sensor

The brass cage style (top pic in my post) is a CORRECT replacement for our IATS. Standard has used this design for years and although it looks different, it's an adequate replacement. I have used it at least 7-8 times in as a many different trucks.
