What did u do to your raptor today?

[MTF]

Monitoring the IAT from the MAF sensor (which is in the very front of the intake track) does not tell us what the temp of the air is when it enters the cylinder from the cylinder head intake port.

Obviously the temp increase is so slight that the Ford engineers saw no need to add a second IAT sensor.
Plus, with the two knock sensors, cylinder head temp sensor and wide band O2s, a second IAT sensor in the manifold is not necessary and most important, not cost effective!
Ford already moved the TB to the back of the manifold were the air flow of the engine bay is less, and has the manifold vortex the air to the front of the manifold (where it's cooler) to keep the air temp entering each cylinder the same.

Changed the bank 1 downstream O2 sensor this morning. Shockingly fast. All of 20 minutes. I had planned a lot more frustration and time for this.

Wow, that sensor got FUBARED

how can you tell by looking at it? Actually curious. I don’t know.
Also if anyone is wondering… if you forget to reconnect the MAF sensor wiring after cleaning it you get all sorts of weird messages.

Ok it's not that bad but the split (seam) is opened up a little.

What was the error? That made you change it out, lazy or failed O2 code.

P2270. Everything I found said failure. It’s been popping an occasional code for about a year.

I monitored the IAT's on my trip to San Antonio and found that they were consistently 1-3 degrees cooler than the ambient temp when cruising on the highway.

That tells me one of your temp sensors is off. Most likely your trucks exterior temp sensor was being effected by the sun.

My tires surprisingly came in so naturally I was very patient and installed them immediately.

I don't like most aftermarket wheels people put on Raptors but those are bad ***. What are they? $?

These are the Raceline 951MC Ryno wheels. They mimic their beadlock design. They have them in machined, black and bronze.
These are 17x9 with a -12 offset.

not today but I replaced the evaporator and condenser, think O found out why my a/c wasn't working. This truck spent the first half of its life on a ranch and the dust and hay behind the dash show it. The Air conditioning works great now and blows 48* air out of the vents.
