hi guys
after reading through a few threads decided to give the maf sensor a clean.
went and bought the sensor cleaner and a t20 torx bit and went to open it up however the bit doesn't fit?
I'm not very good with what different bits are called but can someone please tell me what i need to use to take these out to open the sensor? Its like a T20 fitting but has a small piece of metal protruding from the centre of the bolt?
hope this makes sense...
thanks

think its the the same tool with a hole in the centre anti theft
is what you need
X 2 Roofy normally see those on allen keys
where are you located
argh nice cause it would be so easy to steal a maf sensor under a locked bonnet -_- lol
Im in Ferntree Gully Ill head down to bunnings after work tomorrow and pick up a tool for it.
Thanks for the help guys appreciate it.

Not sure Bunnings would have one ,so good luck I'll read here if you got one or not
i went to repco last week and got a set of them $20.00 ahd the guy took them out of packet to make sure they fit
just went to bunnings and they have a full range of them in a couple of different brands.
bought the t20 size in the security style and fits perfect.
will open it up and finish the job once i get home tonight.
thanks for all your help guys.

Good to hear, keep that tool in your centre console , along with maf spray
don't forget, the sensor is very delicate so don't touch it with your fingers just hold the plastic part of it as they are easily broken!
yep thanks for the advice, I had a good read through the other post on here about how to clean them.
thanks

torx security bits is what they are
not a good idear to keep the spray in the patrol as it will get too hot in there on a hot day (expoding bomb)Quote:
