this sensor is slightly important, since its data (intake air temperature) is used to make minute adjustments in the pcm. not so familiar with chrysler as gm, but on a gm, this sensor doesnt do very much other than need to be plugged in, or a fake value created for it by putting in a regular resistor of a pre determined value. usually cold weather starting and idling issues are more greatly affected by the engine coolant temp sensor (for the pcm), the idle air controller, the throttle position sensor, and some type of throttle body heater whether coolant or exhaust (just like the carbs of yesteryear). if you have a check engine light on, find out what's putting that light on. if you dont, find out if it is even functional.
good luck
