Hi, I'm Mike with 1A Auto. We've been installing auto parts for over 30 years!
What's up, guys? I'm Andy from 1A Auto. Today I'm going to show you how to remove and reinstall the mass air flow sensor in this 2008 Chevy Silverado. If you need parts for your vehicle, click the link in the description and head over to 1aauto.com.
I'm going to take an eight millimeter socket and extension in a ratchet. You could also use a straight-blade screwdriver. I'm going to loosen up these two worm clamps right here, loosen that one up, and then also loosen this one up. Set that aside. Before I take that off, I'll disconnect the connector. Just push down on the lock tab, slide it up, and you can grab the snorkel and just wiggle it back and forth. Pull that off like that, and grab the mass air flow sensor, slide it off like that, and there's the mass air flow sensor.
I'm just going to take this rubber gasket off of this clamp, just grab it right here, slide it off, set that aside, and we're going to transfer that to the new one.
Here we have the old mass air flow sensor. Here we have the new mass air flow sensor from 1aauto.com. As you can see, the shape is the same. The arrow is pointing in the same direction. If you look at the connector, the connector is the same. It has the same screen on the backside, and the internals look the same or very similar. Get yours at 1aauto.com, and you'll be ready to rock and roll.
I'm going to take this clamp, this rubber seal, and we're going to install that. This little tab right here lines up with this right here, so I'll slide that into position just like that. And we want to remember the way the air flow goes in that arrow, so just slide this right here. There's two little tabs right here that line up with this tab, get that into position. This does help if you do pull the dipstick tube out a little bit to just take that out of your way. Line this hose up just like that.
Before we tighten those down, I'm just going to connect our electrical connector. Just connect our electrical connector right here and lock it in place. I'll take a straight-blade screwdriver. You can use a straight-blade screwdriver or an eight millimeter socket and ratchet. Just snug that up, and then I'll self-snug this one up, and that's good. If you pulled the dipstick out, reinsert that into the tube.
