    The people commenting about your music being lame have never worked on a car before. The last thing I need to hear while learning about a new maintenance procedure is Imagine Dragons'esque music blasting over the top of your narration. Just give me something to calm my nerves before I proceed to spill oil, lose bolts and cross-thread a fitting.

    Nice. Since i did the throttle body yesterday im going to hold off a few days to do MAF. 1 thing i like to do is give a few days in between repairs or maintenence just in case something goes wacky,this way im not wondering which thing i did that may have caused the wack out. Ive gotto say,ive done so much stuff to my truck this year thanks to T.O.D. A few things i may have not done at all because i wasnt even aware of the importance,much less the existence of some things. Thanks Tyler & Greg💪

    Great video. Just did this. Decided it was worth undoing the big hose clamp and moving the air cleaner top to the bench for removing the two screws that hold the MAF sensor in place. If they can drop and disappear, they will.

    I love your videos but id like to add to this, the sensor outside of the maf is air intake temp, the air flow sensor is inside that box air is forced in and measured as it leaves , best practice is to spray inside the inlet/outlet and keeping the sensor opening pointing downward while spraying inside this way i feel you dont over saturate the resister inside as you cant see it and trying to clean as best as possible and important wear eye protection !
    Good luck guys 👍👍👍👍
