Default 90' 4.0 Renix MAT sensor replacement?

Hi everyone. I'm in need of replacing from what I've been told is the MAT sensor. Sadly I havent been able to find a part that matches and I have read that the part was discontinued and I am wondering if there is any other option for replacing this part and where I could potentially find one. Thank you for any info you can provide.

That's an Intake Air Sensor, or IAT.
There is a replacement available but I'd have to dig it up.
Who says you need a new one?
Have you cleaned the one you have? Gently with carb or brake cleaner.
Ever been to my website and completed Tips 1 through 5? That could fix the problem and prevent more down the road.

Note from DJ

Here is a Chart that you can check your MAP or Intake Air Sensor with.
All you need is a Volt Ohm meter
