1. Disconnect the mass air flow sensor
electrical connector and cable from
the air filter cover.
2. Clean the area around the air tube to
air filter cover connection to prevent
debris from entering the system and
then loosen the bolt on the air tube
clamp so the clamp is no longer snug
to the air tube. It is not necessary to
completely remove the clamp. Pull the
air tube off from the air filter cover.
3. Release the clamps that secures the
air filter cover to the air filter housing.
