What year?

In the early ECMs (before 1990) the spark timing is controlled by the CTS (Coolant Temperature Sensor) on the front of the intake manifold. I don't know about later years.

The MAT (Manifold Air Temperature) sensor in my car only controls when EGR is enabled.

I looked in the factory tune for my 96 and the only spark correction by temp is done by coolant temp. The IAT temp table is zero'd out.
