2003 MAF Sensor

[cage1234]

I've looked but I seem to only find how to clean MAF sensors on older model 4Runners. Can someone throw out the link for a 2003? Thanks!

All you have to do is unplug the connector, remove the 2 screws and pull it out. It will have some resistance because of the rubber o ring on it. Do not drop it or touch the sensors inside to case. Get a spray can of mass air sensor cleaner and give the two sensors inside 10 -15 shots of spray, let it dry and reinstall it. I noticed more power and mpg after doing this.

Whoops. . . I should have asked if there is a link with pics 'cause I'm not 100% sure on what I'm looking for. The process seems easy but I don't want to screw up.

Bump! I'm doing this tomorrow, any links w/ pics? I have a knack for messing up the easy things...
