I been thinking about relocating the IAT to my intake tube on the jeep for a little better MPG. My question is, being as i would have to mount it on the bottom of my intake tube, (only space available, ive got a CAI) and i've got a little blow by the oil will run right where the sensor goes more than likely. Will the small bit of oil affect the sensors functioning correctly? My thinking is it might interfere with it working correctly but just figured i'd get the opinion of some others in case maybe i dont really know how the sensor works.

And while im at it.. Any good reason for me to have blow-by? I know wore rings can cause it but i'm looking for a simple reason. Jeep runs great and its a low mileage motor, there should be no reason for the rings to be wore (even tho i give it hell..) The blow-by really isnt that big of a concern to me as its only a little bit. Just curious mostly.

 

All cars have slight blowby even new.My moms honda accord has blowby at 50k my jeep with 80k does just do occasional throttle body cleaning etc...at the same time since our.ccv system is an enclosed vaccum loop the oil pumped into the top of your valve cover gets slightly misted and sucked back through the intake manifold.

 

lol i may have made the blow by seem a little less severe than it really is, it was enough to stain my OEM air filter (before i made the CAI).
