Hello, I have searched around and found people saying that IAT sensors are interchangeable as long as they bolt into the same place (same mounting mechanism). I am not sure of this though. The IAT listed for my engine (b18c) at acura is $57 whereas a honda civic IAT is only $15. Does anyone know if the cheaper one from honda will work, or has anyone tried this.

There technically isn't anything wrong with the IAT as far as CEL lights go. I am doing a skunk2 manifold install and found the IAT to be burnt and kinda melted on the end, but the engine runs fine. The only time i ever get a CEL light is when it is below 0 degrees out, but if i let the motor warm up, then shut it off and restart it, the light is gone.

any suggestions or advice, I am probably going to use the burnt one just to get it running before i buy a new one for good measure. I just want to know if i can buy the cheap one from honda.

Thanks in advance

Just get 1 from the junk yard. I have a obd1 IAT from a civic on my obd2 integra gsr currently and it's working fine. Same with all my friends.

junk yard only had one honda with an engine still in it. 88 civic. had the sensor i needed but i stripped the #2 phillips trying to get it out. So i just bought one from honda. Told them to get one for a B16A. $17 total and works like a charm.
