I removed and tested the Intake Air Temperature sensor and checked its resistance and at around 70 degrees F it read 1.8K ohms and at about 35 to 40 degrees F about 2.2K ohms.
So this thermistor has a negative coefficient and the higher the temperature goes the lower the resistance so to lower the temperature reading you will need to add some resistance in series with the thermistor. I would try no more than 100 ohms at a time or if you can find a 200 or 300 ohm potentiometer you could work from zero increase up to 300 ohms increase in steps. Measuring any changes is the challenge, however I just filled my tank with mid grade gas and feel there is a difference in power and acceleration on my Lifan e-pect so maybe the RX guys will be able to feel a difference. Looking at setting up ECU hacker I need to find some of those flat pins they use in the China Bike plugs so that I can make up a plug to fit the ECU port, any idea where I could find those.
