This is where I think they are on a 2.0:
Cyl head temp sensor on #3 cyl behind it's intake runner. Air temp sensor is between the throttle body and the oil filler, "pointing" to the throttle body with it's connection to the front of the car. Am I right? Just want to make sure. I'm troubleshooting my engine's rich running condition and don't want make false checks. Another question: I have a 2.0 with the 044 CPU and 037 MPS, What head temp sensor should I be using. The PO gave me a spare 012 sensor. The spare 012 reads 1.6k ohms (air temp about 70) but the one in the car reads 3k ohms with the engine cold (car sitting for 2 days, Garage slightly cooler than outside temp). After reading Brad's site, it seems the spare 012 sensor is defective and the one in the car is good. Am I right on this? Thanks! |

Regarding MPS's:
QUOTE All MPS's are basically the same. Some are short nosed some are long nosed, some have different spring rates. I use a Waveteck to calibrate them to my known data which is very similar to BradAnders data. I do have a NOS 043 that I use to check the wavetek everytime before I calibrate a unit. The 037 (73 2.0l) has way different settings than the 049 and 043. The 049 and 043 are pretty much the same except for the WOT settings. You can set up a MPS though and it will spec out perfectly then go for a drive and it runs like shit! These units are old so if you want perfect running car get a new one! I harvest good diaphrams out of MPS's then rebuild them for 2.0l's. The AA rebuilt MPS's I have seen are junk ! Geoff |
