Bad air temperature sensor? Could it be causing rough idle on starup? 700

The car: 1990 740 GL, Rex/Regina. Runs poorly on startup for about 2 minutes then runs great.

I just checked the air temperature sensor (just downstream of the air box). It's reading about 1600-1800 ohms while the ambient temperature is about 60. The engine is a little warm though... but I'm guessing the actual sensor can't be experiencing more than 70, 75 degrees tops.

Could this thing be causing my issues? If so, what's the cheapest source?

Thanks
