IAT would be attached to the side of the air filter box. Don't have any pics b/c they are usually never a problem. What is the problem your having?

Look at your intake tubes that comes off the turbo and go into the head. On the right side tube there is a hose that comes up and goes to a small unit mounted on the firewall. You'll see an electrical plug going into it also. I believe that's what you're looking for.

I didn't look and see that we're talking about a 94.5. Mines a 97 with the air cleaner on the left wheel well. Is yours turbo or not? Air cleaner in the middle of the block? It's got to be somewhere in the intake system, even if it's a hose that goes to the iat located somewhere else.

What you bought off eBay isn't gonna help. My buddy tried one and it didn't help any at all.

If you do have a powerstroke, the air box is on the drivers side fenderwell. The IAT sensor is between the outside of the airbox and drivers side fender.
My ford coffee table book says the IAT sensor is only used to enable the EBPV, nothing about fueling
