my IAT i have found out in very cold (below freezing) weather reads -38. does it make the car run leaner or richer. can this foul up the plugs. I am going to replace the IAT sensor today and hopefully that will solve that issue. I am not sure if i should replace all plugs, wires and coils too while i am at it. i have 85k miles and so far i have only replaced one coil pack, and plugs about 40k ago.

It would just give the wrong tempature reading. Cold = rich, warm = lean. I drove with mine unplugged for 200 miles and all I got was an SES light. I never took the time to figure out if high resistance(unplugged) means cold or warm, it depends on which way the IAT works.1996 white camaro M5<br />-Custom CAI, !MAF, !EGR, Hi-Flow Cat, Magnaflow Cat-back, Removed Jack/Spare/Back seats.<br /><br />2.12 60\' Best<br />15.14 @ 90 1/4 mile Best

When tempature goes up, resistance goes down (NTC). Thats the case most of the time.
