    Default Intake manifold temperature sensor

    OK, I just measured the resistance of the sensor on a fully warmed up engine on a mild day (20°C) and it read 870 Ohm - is this normal? The ETK says it's a 2500 Ohm thermistor but I don't know is it PTC or NTC and what is the temperature range.

    Anyone?

    did you measure the resistance when cold? Thats when most measurements are taken.

    I'll try that today when I get back from work. What value should I get when cold if my sensor is working properly?
