Hi,
I had a wire that was disconnected from the intake temperature sensor. It was throwing a code for inactivity from that sensor obviously, but i assumed it was broken not disconnected. Could that sensor be related to other vacuum or emissions related issues in the car? Was it running too hot?

Hook it back up, reset all the codes and see if any pop back up...

For example, telling the ECU the engine is cold when it's at operating temperature in actuality could result in excessive rich mixtures. The reverse could likely result in misfires from too lean.

thanks for the help, hopefully all is well after the next 50 miles or so
