MAF relays are behind the battery on the firewall, there are 2. I believe theyre listed with the same part number.

You do not have a MAP sensor on a MAF car.

You should replace both relays at the same time. They are both MAF relays. Shouldnt be over $20. I believe its the burnoff on the left, power on the right with the white connector (on mine).

ok the one on the left is differrent then the right.. they look the same but the pins out are different( E/A open)!! however i had new ones replaced burn off relay( black) .. and works just fine!! set timming at 8before.. thanks VADER86..

the white, i think, powers the maf sensor,, is that right?
