where to get an intake thermosensor?

Like it says. Air intake thermosensor, on the intake manifold not in the AFM. Do I have to go to the dealer for one? Or are there places that have them online anywhere? or parts stores? I kinda screwed the plug on the back of mine while changing a heater hose(pulled one of the tabs right off) and have been trying to fix it all evening with no luck.

I dunno for sure but I think if you goto a junkyard and screw one off any 2nd gen it should do the trick. I fanyone knows if it is turbo or non-turbo specific please feel free to correct me.

I have one off my 86 N/A. I have a Haltech and it comes with its own sensor so I'll sell you mine for cheap if you need a N/A sensor. I don't know if there is a difference between the turbo and N/A either. Send me a PM if you are interested.

Guess I could hit the yard, maybe get some other small parts while i'm there too. I shouldn't have broken it but I got pissed off when my heater hose wouldn't detach from the firewall connection and I yanked the snot out it to remove it. I then proceeded to throw the hose at the ground a few times for good measure. I kinda cranked the hose leading into the firewall crooked and outward so I'm hoping I didn't disconnect anything or cause a leak in behind the dash cause that would really be upsetting . Out of curiousity, is the thermosensor in the same spot on a '86-'88 model as it is on my '90?
