hmmm, I dunno, I know my cavalier had an IAT sensor on it, but it did not have any type of MAF sensor and the IAT was the only one that told the ECU anything about airflow. But with the KA (and SR) the Computer reads the airflow information by the MAF. The way I understand the maf to work is that there is a little element in there that gets heated to some temperature and then the rate at which it is cooled and how cool it stays determines the amount of air that is coming into the motor.
But what do I know, I am just a geography major

I need to know where that is. I think it is the IAT. But I dont know where it is.

Hey 240_keyy, you're a geography major? I could use your help with something...have you covered Central America yet in your studies?
Don't worry, I'm not hijacking your thread, 240SXedup! The IAT is a small sensor that is inside the lower airbox. Since you have a '95 it should be held in with two small bolts. Once you get the MAFS disconnected and the top of the airbox removed, you should be able to see it.

In a nutshell, I need to know September average annual climate ranges, typical flora and topography for the following areas of Mexico: Chihuahua, Coahuila, Tamulipas, Nueva Leon, Veracruz, Tabasco and Yucatan/Quintana Roo provinces.
Ha ha ha, you know, nothing complicated or anything!
Can you help a brutha out?

Can you help a brutha out?Yes, I know it's bizarre...I need this info for my book, I actually tried to get in touch with my old geography prof. but he ran up to the Peace River district in Canada to retire and evidently no longer has the trappings of civilization. Like, you know, phones and running water and such.
240_Keyy, I can make do with just some general geographic details about any of these provinces....anything would be awesome! I have been combing the net for info but a lot of it is too specialized to be of any use. If you know a good website for me, I will be in yo debt.
I need a basic description like "region is primarily flat and tropical, characterized by limestone soils, underlying ridge of karst, rainy season between Aug. to Oct., typical crops include maize, marijuana, etc."
I'll even send you a package of genuine Scrapple for your troubles.

You won't see the skinny part of the IAT (on the left), it's buried within the lower intake. What you will see from the outside should be a big plug that connects to the outer portion of the IAT (the squarish part on the right). It will lead you right to it. It's gotta be there!
240_keyy, that would be fine. I've actually been looking for a good text on Central American geography but surprisingly I haven't found much out there. Maybe I've just been searching in the wrong place, eh? Would your prof. be okay with me pestering him for info...
"Yes, hello, uh, 240_keyy sent me..."
LOL, I am sure that if you called/e-mailed him and told him that you were a friend of Keith Lempa's and you wanted to know some information about his area of specialty for a book you are writing he would give you the hook-up. His name is Dr. Rob Dull and you can find his e-mail by looking here: http://geog.tamu.edu/newpage/people.html and clicking on his name... (don't wanna actually just give it to you, lest a spammer might pick it up 
)
FLASHBACK: OHHH YEAH!!! I just remembered, I actually have a textbook from my Geog of Latin America that may have some useful information in it. Duh

Okay, back up. Take the plug harness for the MAFS (the one I assume you've disconnected already. It's on top of the intake, right before the filter box.) Now there should be a wiring branch off of that MAFS harness that leads a short distance to the airbox or thereabouts. That plug should be the IAT. Try tracing the branch off the MAFS harness, that may make it easier.
240_keyy, thanks for the link bro. Now I will commence flooding your professor with prank calls and spam emails. My plan worked to perfection! Buahahaha!
BTW, would you like original flavor Scrapple or the "extra lard" variety?

Yeah, he would probably expect that from me
But seriously man, he is a pretty cool guy and is very knowledgeable about latin america. Just tell him I sent ya and that you will give him a plug in yer book or something.
And what is this scrapple madness of which you speak? Does it come in pecan flavor? Because I like pecans
