- Release the air box clamp.
- Separate the inlet side from the outlet side of the air cleaner.







3. Release the latches and remove the MAF assembly.

- To install, tighten to 2 Nm (18 lb-in).

6. NOTE:
- The grommet used to seal the engine air cleaner housing at the extension harness must be fully seated. Failure to do so will result in unmetered air entering the engine.
