What do you with the Mass Air Flow Sensor after installing Safari Snorkel?

Thanx

Forgot vehicle specs: 1994 Mits Montero 3.5 liter

Nothing! just keep it clean, you can buy air sensor cleaner..

The snorkel is connected to the air filter box that houses the mass flow sensor. Check out the folks that fabs the snorkels, they have a how to write up.

Thanks GrassCat........makes sense. Does anyone have a picture with inside installation of a Safari Snorkel? Pls

No pics but in the engine bay you shouldn't notice much different. Most of the changes are in between the inner and outer fenders above the plastic splash shield in your wheel well. Sorry, no access to pics of that right now although I did take some pics. I'll try and remember to post them later although frankly it won't do much good since it's all common sense stuff here. IIRC I used 3 or 4" ID flexible dryer hose from the snorkel at the outer fender to the inner fender where I mated the hose to the oval intake hole of the filter housing using a flexible PVC round to rectangle adapter originally made for house rain gutters.

To seal up the various openings I used a putty substance sort of like plumber's putty and a black tar-like adhesive backed tin tape used by contractors (it was Grasscat's so I'm not 100% sure what it was).

Unfortunately none of the available snorkels provide the internal plumbing bits because as they've claimed to me when I've asked, the internals for each engine are all different.:Wow1:

Wanted to take a moment to thank everyone. I spoke with the retailer and the MFG and I feel confident everything will fall into place. Good wheeling
