GriffXX Posted March 23, 2005 Share Posted March 23, 2005 Swapping the plugs (finally) and I am following Warchild's instructions to the 'T' (so far). Of course he says be very carefull when removing the IAT off of the air cleaner housing. So trying to be careful, how does the connector come off? Does the connector need to come off, or can I just unscrew the sensor and remove it all from the air cleaner housing? If the connector must be disengaged first, is there a tab to push, or a certain twist, or a straight lift, or magic words to say??? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warchild Posted March 23, 2005 Share Posted March 23, 2005 Not a stupid question! You grasp the top of the IAT connector and use your thumb to push the top of the connector tab inward (as shown by yellow arrows): This causes the latch to clear the retaining tab (point to by red arrow below). Now lift the connector straight up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXTi Posted March 23, 2005 Share Posted March 23, 2005 It's been a while since I've removed mine, but I seem to remember some kind of tab retainer you have to push/squeeze/press before the connector comes off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northman Posted March 23, 2005 Share Posted March 23, 2005 Could you be a little more clear in your descriptions, Dale? Maybe include a more detailed pic or something? :wink: Hats off, man! How could you ask for a better answer than the one you just provided? =D> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironmike Posted March 23, 2005 Share Posted March 23, 2005 ... if you don't want to - just remove the two screws holding it to the air box/housing. Lift it straight up and it'll clear the housing with no problem. Rather than just let it dangle on its wiring, just tuck it out of the way (I stick it in a plastic sandwitch bag with the two screws - that I don't wanna lose - close the bag around the wire and snug it with a rubber band). You'll never forget to re-install it with that bag hanging right there. :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warchild Posted March 23, 2005 Share Posted March 23, 2005 Could you be a little more clear in your descriptions, Dale? Well, now that I look at it, the top of the IAT is a little out of focus.... stupid macro lens on that dumb digi-camera... :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
