Makes it respond faster. I just shaved off the insulation.

Shaved IAT sensor:

I have a feeling I shaved too much.... I'll have to find out once I start the car

Lmaooooo. I only exposed the bulb at the tip. But I bet it should read hella quick now!

Nice, never read about shaving the IAT insulation!

Well got more done today but ended up smashing my right ring finger really bad with my slide hammer while trying to remove the pilot bushing so I had to stop work and I may or may not be able to continue work tomorrow.... I also need a new pilot bushing as it doesn't feel smooth, I wish I had check this earlier...

But I do want to confirm that the bushing in the far right of this picture is in fact the bushing they are referring to in the second picture:

What's the next best way to remove the pilot bushing? I've tried the slide hammer and it doesn't seem to want to budge.
