2000 GMC Savana 3500 Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How Should the Mass Air Flow Sensor Be Serviced and Installed on 2000 GMC Savana 3500?

  A: You must handle the mass air flow (MAF) sensor with caution to protect the screen at its air inlet and refrain from touching the sensing elements as well as keeping solvents and lubricants away from them. A minimal amount of spo (12345884) lubricant or its soap equivalent lubricant should be used for installation support. The service of the mass air flow (MAF) sensor begins with disconnecting the maf sensor harness connector and negative Battery Cable. Start by releasing the clips on the air cleaner cover while removing the outlet duct from the maf sensor through hose clamp loosening. You must loosen the hose clamp which attaches the air cleaner cover to its front position on the maf sensor. Before installation position the maf sensor flow arrows to face away from the air cleaner. The maf sensor should be clamped to the air cleaner cover using 4 n.m torque whereas the air cleaner outlet duct needs 3-5 n.m torque to secure it to the maf sensor. Install the air cleaner cover through securing its clips while reinstalling the maf sensor harness connection before reconnecting the negative battery terminal.
