AIR INTAKE QUESTION
I'm using a 96 Explorer EFI set up and have a question on the air intake. I'll be using a K&N cone style filter and was wondering if I need the 2-sensors pointed in red arrows. I believe the top is a air charge temp sensor?? and the bottom is a air flow sensor?? correct me if I'm wrong.
I will also trying to use the upper 90 degree plastic elbow tubing for my conversion.
I had Garry reprogram the computer and used his utube tutorial to rewire the explorer wire harness but that was a year+ ago and need to find where I stashed the re-worked harness lol

Re: AIR INTAKE QUESTION
I think you meant Red arrows?
I can't help ya there, but you might look into the AEM dry-flow universal cone filters. No need for the right oiling to filter the air. And perhaps a good prefilter sock.

Re: AIR INTAKE QUESTION
, yes red arrows Defiantly going dry filter, I tried a oil filter on the XJ and hated it as it would clog up really bad in dusty condition. Good point on the pre-filter

Re: AIR INTAKE QUESTION
Airaid makes good filters and pre filter socks. Available on Amazon Prime.
I’m almost certain you need both of those sensors.

Re: AIR INTAKE QUESTION
I do have the air temperature sensor (top red arrow) and I think the only other sensor wired upstream of that is the MAF. And you'll have to utilize a dry filter. The K&N filters with the oil will gum up your MAF sensor.
