I found this sensor hanging loose today when I removed my airbox to change out filters. What is it and where does it normally mount?

Engine compartment (air) temperature sensor. This sensor tells the DME when to turn the engine compartment purge fan on.

As I recall it slides on a clip on the intake manifold. The probe should not be touching anything.

Roger that, thanks.

I see that you live in Roseville... do you know Paul Vernon? He's a big German car nut and hangs out with a bunch of exotic car owner types, and his wife is in charge of merchandising for Neillo.
