Question About This Thingy On Tube Coming From Air Filter...
 

Anyone know what that Connector with the wire coming out of it is on the tube that is coming out of the Air Filter Box? I have a 3.8L (3800) engine on my '03 Impala. I am just wondering what that is and if that is something you would replace as part of a routine or preventative maintenance thing. Thanks!

Incoming air temperature sensor or thingy I think.

hehehehe..... thanks. I wasn't sure and didn't want to be like Tim Allen and go "Hmmm, what is this. >SNAP!< (in a Tim Allen Grunt..-->) Ohh nooo!".

There is a place for humor on this forum............thanks

Yeah its an intake air temperature sensor.

Humor is defianately appreciated on the forum!

I still think the term "thingy" for that item sounds better. hehehe :)
