Default IAS intake air sensor

Hey all, quick question on the IATS on the bottom of the plenum. I replaced it recently but found out I install the part number for a 1991 and up. I own a 1986. Will this be a problem as the part numbers are different and should I replace it with the proper part number for the car.

Tony

Yes, put the part in thats called for by part number. Sometimes parts look the same, but function differently. Just my opinion...
