Installing

For problem free operation of the MAF sensor it is very important to observe the following notes and procedures.

• If the air filter element is very dirty or soaked, dirt particles or moisture may have contaminated the MAF sensor and may be causing false MAF values. This results in a reduction of power, since a lower injection quantity is calculated.

• Always use an original equipment air filter element.

• Use a lubricant (silicone-free) for installing the intake hose.

• Secure all hose connections with hose clamps appropriate for the model. Refer to the Parts Catalog.

- Check the MAF sensor and connecting pipe (intake air side) for salt residue, dirt, and leaves.

- Check the intake passages up to the air filter element for dirt. If any contaminants are discovered, clean the upper and lower air filter housings of salt residue, dirt and leaves. Wash or vacuum if necessary. Air filter element removing and installing. Refer to => [ Air Filter Element ] Service and Repair.
