Subject:      temp sensor !--ohm value
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII

I have been having power loss problems on my 85 vanagon and have been checking various components with a multimeter. Re the Airflow meter, it checks out within specs. However, the temp sensor I should have a reading of somewhere around 1500 ohms at 30 centegrade--when I take the reading it reads about 50 ohms. I let took it out and let it sit in the sun today and it then read 40 ohms--its going in the right direction. I have been taking the reading off pin 1 and 4 (6 and 22) off the electrical connector.

Question--could this be my problem; is the temp sensor I bad?
