Intake Temp Sensor

Where is the intake temperature sensor on a 91 A* 3.0? It's not on the air box, and I don't see it around the intake. Also, right below the intake, I have a small round plug with two wires in it, just hanging there, anyone know what it is?

That sounds like the Air Temp Sensor. I have not really torn into an Aero, but on all other fords, there is a spot for it to plug into the airbox.

On the Aerostar, the Air temperature sensor is located on the Upper Intake Manifold, on the driver's side. On the outside, it looks like another water temperature sensor, but the innards are a little different. You may have to remove some of the stuff in front of it, e.g. the A/C compressor. By the way, was it a 3.0L or a 4.0L?

Good luck

What tube? Can you click on my alias and send me an e-mail? Don't send a private message, but an e-mail. Once I got that, I'll have your e-mail address, and I can send you a picture.
