Reading my incoming air temp. yesterday it was 120 deg.when the
outside air infront of the rediator was 99 deg. I was doing below 30mph.
Above that they evened out to match at 99 deg. Later at nite it was
79 deg. outside ( our front of car sensor ) and incoming air at the MAF
was 97 deg. and at 40mph they matched at 79 deg. !!!

I am guesing that heat from the front of the engine and rediator was
getting into the intake air. Not until about 40mph did outside air match
the inside. So I am thinking of running an extra intake tube from
more in front of the car to get fresher air in.

Any Thoughts ???
