Okay all you Saturn peoples lol. Here''s something sort of a paradox to me. I found this little sensor just hanging out, it''s near my radiator, It doesn''t seem like it fits in into anywhere. I am giving two links to show you what it looks like. I found the etcs sensor and hooked it up, need a new sensor and plug bad! here''s the links, your input is appreciated!

That is the intake air temp (IAT) sensor. It''s supposed to mount into the air intake tube which seems to be absent in the pics you provided.

Depending on the year of the car and engine type it could mount in different places.

1991-1994 DOHCs, it screws into the bottom of the intake resonator that runs side to side along the radiator support. The bung is right before the tube that enters the bottom left of the airbox.

1991-1994 SOHC''s, it screws into the bottom of the airbox.

1995-2002 SOHC''s and DOHC''s it screws into the tube thats at the bottom of the air box.

Since yours is a 92 DOHC, per Mike''s most detailed response above, it screws into the bottom of the intake resonator (not the intake tube).

Yeah I am ordering a breather intake. The people who owned the car before me really did a number on her. I have to get new door panels, a new shifter **** assembly and a few assorted things. I figured out how I am going to do the car. I figured since I seen that these cars are really nice fixed up I decided to make a project car out of it. I''m not going to go to extremes with it, just fix her up, get a paint job, redo the interior and stuff, I dont make much money so I can''t put that much into her lol
