Where is the IAT sensor on your 1998 Chevy pickup?

On a 1998 Chevy pickup, the Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor is typically located within the intake air duct, before the mass airflow sensor (MAF). It's often a small, black, plastic-bodied sensor with a single wire connector.

However, the exact location can vary slightly depending on the engine size and specific model of your truck. To be absolutely certain, you should:

1. Consult your owner's manual: This is the best resource for your specific vehicle.

2. Use a repair manual specific to your year, make, and model: A Haynes or Chilton manual will have diagrams showing the sensor's location.

3. Look online for diagrams: Search for "[Your Engine Code] IAT sensor location" to find diagrams and photos from other truck owners. (Your engine code is usually found on a sticker under the hood.)

Searching visually is usually the easiest method. Follow the air intake tubing from the air filter to the throttle body. The IAT sensor is usually somewhere along that path.
