Hello DAKsters,
Funny you mention this - I first did this (and posted results on DML)
about 6 mos ago, but everyone must have been asleep. I disconnected my
IAT and plugged in a 15k ohm resistor. According to the temp tables in
the FSM, this shows a constant ~ 50 degrees F at all times. Seemed to
help (especially on off-line accel). Best was disconnecting both IAT &
coolant temp sensor (MIL light for sure!) but talk about fry the skins!
Later,
Russ Selkirk
