Remember that the insulation in the temp sensor will break down after a few years and the sensor will need replacing.


Arrrh, this is probably the real problem I had then, I didn't realise the insulating material would break down after a period of time (makes sense though).

I did some brief testing when I moved the sesnor, doing comparisons between the two positions over periods of time and I found the the new air temp sensor position (approx 40mm pre throttle body rather than approx 80mm post throttle body) was a worhtwhile move. Both my sensors are old though so both probably have poor insualting properties now.

Thanks for the tip, I may go get a new temp sensor and see what differences are made.

Cheers.
