[QUOTE="Humvee21, post: 419987, member: 2236"] [COLOR="Yellow"]DIY Air Filter Change[/COLOR] I'm at 15,000 miles and decided to take a look at my air filter. Damn it was dirty! [ATTACH=full]210033[/ATTACH] Things you'll need: 1. Air Filter Replacement: OEM Motorcraft FA-1883 [ATTACH=full]210034[/ATTACH] 2. Flat head screwdriver Procedure: [ATTACH=full]210035[/ATTACH] 1. Loosen the flat head screw show above with a green arrow pointing to it. Make sure you loosen it almost all the way, but do not remove the clamp. 2. Unclip the 3 tabs holding the air filter cover. 2 of the 3 tabs are shown above with a yellow arrow pointing to them. The 3rd and final tab is behind the ********* pipe. 3. You will now need to disconnect the connector to the mass air flow sensor. The connector is shown by the red arrow. To disconnect this, you will need to pull on the red tab beneath the connector. Do not pull too hard as this tab seems fragile. The red tab does not come off! It only "unlocks" and "locks." The red tab is shown below. [ATTACH=full]210036[/ATTACH] 4. Now you are ready to remove the air filter cover. It takes some wiggling to get it off. You will need to pry it from the passenger side first since the tabs on the driver's side are angled upwards. 5. Remove old filter and replace with new. Be aware that the filter is not a perfect square so make sure you orient the new filter properly! 6. Place the air filter cover back into its proper spot.
