I was wondering, i pulled out my air charge temp sensor due to a check engine light i was getting, when i took it out, it had a gasy smell to it, and was oily and black, SEEING that this is the air going into my engine, is this BAD or normal wear, and if its bad would anything like this cause a failure internally for the engine to not start??
 
It will get like that since the tubes and the IC get exposed to oil mist from the PCV system. Thats normal, just clean it before putting it in.
