A. Loosen the hose clamp at the throttle body.
Disconnect the plastic 3/8" tube assembly
attached to the passenger’s side valve cover.
Remove the plastic 3/8" x 90° connector from
the plastic tube that was connected at the pas-
senger’s side valve cover. Set this connector
aside to be re-used in a later step. Discard the
remainder of the hose assembly, as it will not
be re-used. (See Fig. 1-a.)
*** NOTE ***
The preferred method of removing the 90° connector
from its original plastic tube is to apply a small amount
of heat to the tube and slide the connector free.
B. Disconnect the mass air flow (MAF) sensor
plug and remove the inlet duct and upper air fil-
ter cover from the car. (See Figs. 1-a, 1-b, 1-c.)
