Air Flow Meters

Recommended Posts

Guest ben-1888

Is the air flow meters from 1.6 and 1.9 the same??

im pretty sure i have a 1.6 afm on my 1.9... it looks identical but the shape of the pipes are different which make it difficult to fit in any air filter... i have both parts but just aint sure if they both do the same job!!

also im having trouble gettin my suspension off... the drop link bolts(think thats what u call it) or top bolt to b exact started loosening then just stoped and the whole housing is now spinning with no noticable way of holding the other end of the bolt! bit of a hard one to explain but im sure use will no what i mean!

 

thanks... :blink:

The 1.6 and 1.9 airflow meters are different. They are the same size and shape, but calibrated differently internally.

On the other side to the nut theres a hex shaped bit, just behind where it mounts to the strut body. Get a spanner on there while you undo the nut from the other end.

When I replaced mine one side was like that so easy but the other side had what loked like a washer with 2 flat sides that no spanner on earth would fit so so adjustable grips or mole grips may come in handy to
