Well it's pretty easy. Go
Well it's pretty easy. Go to Radio Shack and buy a pack of 220 Ohm resistors for $0.99. Take two resistors, place them side by side, and twist the leads together. Refer to SVOBoy's picture for exactly what it should look like. Next find the IAT sensor for your engine. Mine was sitting right on top of the intake maifold in a black plastic box. There should be a two wire connector coming out of the sensor. Remove the connector and stick the ends of the resistors into the female plug. Wrap some electrical tape around everything and you're done.
Twisting the resistors together in parallel will make the total resistence lower than the individual resistences.
1 / TotalResistance = (1 / R1) + (1 / R2)
For R1 = R2, total resistance equals R1 / 2. In this case, two 220 Ohm resistors in parallel would yeild a net resistance of 110 Ohms.
