@StarBear L Jetronic Temp Sensor II AFM Options

[wonkipop]

@StarBear .


here is what i have on the Temp Sensor II inbuilt into the AFM on the 1.8 L Jetronic.





i could be wrong but i don't think there is any effective way to test the air temp sensor in the AFM on our adam/eve in the garden of eden L Jetronic system. that sensor is not wired in separately.

but maybe there is an expert here who knows.

- in relation to the problem you are having with hot days and ultra high humidity causing the idle to drop to barely running - i'm not sure the symptom fits a faulty Temp Sensor II in the AFM. others here might know better. I would not have thought a faulty sensor would cause that dramatic a result. Temp Sensor 1 (CHT) - yes. but Temp Sensor II no.

i am sure @Van B will pipe in with a more learned view.

I would have thought Temp Sensor 2 fault would make the car run rich.
I think that is how it would work. but again i am probably wrong.
i'd have to think about it.
most trouble shooting literature i can dig up says failure mode causes car to run richer generally. increased fuel consumption.
