Re: Gas Mialage, clean your MAF sensor
Is it obvious what/where the MAF sensor is when you pull the air filter?

You won't have to pull the air filter. The MAF is downstream in the air inlet tube. You'll lift up the fancy plastic engine cover on top and see the MAF with two screws and a connector. Use the search function and then look in Uphill's thread for pictures

Re: Gas Mialage, clean your MAF sensor
Then again maybe I don't need to clean this thing. My FJ is getting about 17-20MPG.

Re: Gas Mialage, clean your MAF sensor
Most auto parts stores carry this.
The MAF actually measures airflow into the engine.
