intake air thermo sensor

Post by blaudust7 »

I went to rock auto looking for an Intake Air Thermo Sensor. I was sent to a MAF sensor. Are the Intake Thermo Sensor and MAF Sensor the same thing?

We don't use either, we use a VAF.

The intake air temp sensor is inside the VAF, not replaceable from what I know, so you're going to have to buy a VAF.
