    I was looking over the engine on my 1999 GTP the other day and noticed that someone who owned it before me was all over this engine.

    One thing that I didn't like was the fact that the MAF sensor was just hanging behind the engine almost sitting on the exhaust manifold.

    I cant for the life of me figure out where it used to sit or where its factory attached.

    If anyone has a picture of where its suppost to be or can describe it to me, I would be very happy.

    Thanks.

    There is a metal bracket it sits on. Most remove it to have easier access at the rear bank. I would either find the bracket or zip tie it in a better place. As long as the line is not cracked or the wires are not burnt, it's pretty bullet proof.

    that is your MAP not MAF. MAF connects to a vacuum line, MAP connects to air intake pre-TB.

    Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor

    Mass AirFlow Sensor
