Posted January 6, 201510 yr I'm installing a mpg and high idle fooler. My hands are quite big and trying to determine the easest way to make the connection to the ait. Take off the bracket for the dip stick and remove fuel filter? Or find an Aisian woman to help? Lol. Edited January 6, 201510 yr by joecool911
January 6, 201510 yr Are you sure you got the right sensor? Been a while since I messed in that area of a 24 valve, maybe it's different then a 12 valve.
January 6, 201510 yr Owner I just reach back and pop the connector off. I've also got big gorilla hands too.
January 6, 201510 yr You mean you guys don't just crawl up over the radiator and sit in there. I guess being 130 lbs has its benefits...now if I could just see over the steering wheel. Chris
January 6, 201510 yr Owner I normally just pull the hoist ring out. Then I can reach in. I've also found out if you pull the valve cover you can get in there really easy then.
January 6, 201510 yr I put a 33X12.50" tire mounted on a rim with plywood on it right near the drivers tire & reach in while standing on it. Ed

January 7, 201510 yr Owner Man, that sucker is clean. What products do you use? Or... 3,000 PSI power washer.
January 7, 201510 yr I made my own IAT fooler (only) & mounted a toggle in the knee panel. Works great! But man, it was a pain to reach the sensor to plug in the extension harness. Like my boatyard days, I climbed up on top of the engine. Laid cardboard over sharp corners & laid on it to reach. There was blood spilt getting it done.
January 7, 201510 yr Author Or... 3,000 PSI power washer. Are you running that stuff through the suction line of the power washer?
