You sure it's in the cabin?

Mine is mounted on a bracket on the firewall, with a vacuum line running to
the intake plenum. Did they change this for later cars?

Mine is in the intake plenum at the other end from the throttle body. It is
about as far as you could possibly get from the throttle body without
depositing the PA sensor directly into a cylinder.

Shit. TA sensor, not PA sensor.

TeGGeR regrets the error.

According a Honda 84-91 manual book , Atmoshereic sensor is call Air
jet controller. Amount of air getting to engine changes as the altitude
change.
The name of this device is only 84-91 model. I did not find the same
name
for Hodan Model after 92... it's funny name how they got that name.
But...I don't think this is a electronic device.

Sure. Two places I know of. Beside the
steering column and the passenger kick panel.
Modern cars is located inside the ECU.

That's for a CARBURETED CAR.

It isn't. It's an analog device used on carburetors. Cars with electronic
fuel injection do not need such devices, which is what I said before.

Would this have been used on '88-'89s, the the last of the carburetors?

Thanks. I didn't know that until now. It makes sense, though.
