S3 Air Temp Sensor

[Stone Cold]

Seems I need a new one as the car won't start with it connected (keeps flooding, so I guess it thinks it is cold!) disconnected it starts and runs like a dream.

Any ideas on where to get a new one appreciated before I start trawling the interweb :-)

Where is it, what does it look like? Don't think I've got one or is yours an S3C, do they have one?

Hi, yep it is a S3C, although de-catted. Pic attached the white piece is screwed in, the black piece is the connector, so I assume it is the bit that screws in that I need, something like this?

just went to go out and won't start again, turning over fine and sparks all in the right places but just won't fire

Adrian, have you tested the ATS with a multimeter? If not, if you pm me with an email address I can send you a lot of data re the electronics which may help you, I assume you have the standard 2.9 with Bosch L-Jetronic EFI. Andy

Guys, massively interested in your thread. Sorry to jump onto your thread, I have just completed a body off rebuild of my S3 and had timing issues so car wouldn't run (set it 180deg out). Had it running a month or so ago but nothing other than a couple of coughs since and just end up with a flat battery. Fuel, spark, compression all fine, but very strong smell of fuel i.e. flooding.

Any ideas or stuff to check (connections/multimeter etc...)

Thanks
