Thread: Which MAF Sensor

Does it run fine is the first question I'll ask you...

All of the MAF's from 97-03 are the same...it's the throttle body's that vary.

What? Nick remember how the 97/98 has the post in the TB and the 99+ don't have the post. That makes the sensor different.

Got it backwards.

Now were even for the mess up you had awhile back that I caught

No, you read me wrong

97/98 open the throttle body, there is a solid metal post. It's not part of the sensor, I meant..it had the post, therefore the sensor in that year has no bulky shield on it.
99+ has no post in the TB structure and therefore has the plastic shielding as part of the sensor.

They do from the top. Look at the part of the sensor that sticks into the TB. There's your difference that we are talking about.

i loaded up the does it fit section, it says this one will fit your car, the other is for a 98 wont work.
