Don't over oil. It. Some people wash it and oil it before usedm as comes over oiled usually, if the oil gets on your maf it can cause it to misread.

There are instructions in the box to install it.

use a wd-40 on the outside sleeve of the IAT when you put it in the new grommet of the k&n cold air intake or you will break it.

Before trying to get the IAT grommet in the tube..... pray for patience. VERY tedious and trying process, but when you finish it have a beer ready in the fridge or some whiskey sitting in the freezer
