As an estimation from the graph in the manual it's about 100k Ohm at 0c, I was seeing over 1,000k Ohm.
at least you still got an Ohm reading, as a fully failed sensor would read infinite resistance.  Been o/s for the past 8 days, hope to get some shed time in soon.
I try to take one day at a time, however sometimes several days catch up with me at once.

Aye but because I got a reading I didn't get a FI light for it. As it pretty much just tests something is connected. There's no logic such as oil temp & intake temp are so far apart it's illogical.

I had that running rich problem in my 14 ten years ago.
Finally I found it. It was poor grounding of ECU..
Also the other groundings were poor. battery-engine-throttle bodies, but ECU was the reason.

Thanks for all the advice - turned out to be TPS/STPS and air filter on top of the previously mentioned IAP sensor.
Wish I'd read the posts about the Hiflo filters before buying one but at least could return it before going OEM.
