MAF torx bit??

On 8/11/2003 10:52 AM, Marc felt the need to say:

What you're looking for is called a Security Torx bit or driver. I know that Sears has a 6 bit package for about 10 bucks (Sears item #00925702000), but you should be able to find it anywhere with more tools than a drug store. Home Depot, Lowes, many automotive parts places, etc.

T20 tamperproof TorX.... available at most autoparts stores. Use brake cleaner to clean the sensing wires.... if you do need to touch them with anything, use a very soft childs toothbrush very, very gently. Don't touch the sensing wires with your fingers. Allow it to air dry before you reinstall it.

Thanks. I was at Sears yesterday, but could not find them. I'll go over to the other bigger Sears this week with that part #.

Thanks. Brake Cleaner, huh? I always read to use Elecronic Contact Cleaner???

If you can't find the security tools, I just snap the little stud off with a real small screw driver. Then use the Torx

Marc as in Warden? Long time no hear from (if it's you). Didn't you get a F-Body or a Porsche or something?

I bought a set of the security license plate screw which come with a required Allen wrench. I then threw the screws away and used the Allen wrench on my MAF. Cheap and easy.

No Warden here. I just lurk from time to time.
