Maf Sensor O ring

Is this a dealer only part? Anyone local to Sunnyvale have one? I called pep boys and they didnt seem to understand what i was asking for.

Go to your local auto parts store and try to find a close match.

Thanks Ed I will go and take a look tomorrow. i went to Lowe's of all places and picked up a couple of different sizes and got one to work. it doesn't leak and will hold me over till i can get the correct one.
it is odd though the one that i had on the maf worked fine with the stock box but was to thick for the Perrin Intake.

Shouldn't use an oiled filter element, your MAF will hate you once it gets all coated with oil..


And your stock box is good for up to 400hp..

that is correct, dealer or SOA doesnt offer it by itself. We carry new MAF's in stock if needed

I cleaned the excess oil off the filter with a towel and paper towel's. I have heard that the air box is good up to 3 something sub 400hp. Good thing i still have mine, but i do like the way this Perrin Unit looks and sounds, MAtches the eng bay quite well.

I might have to take one of you up on your offer for a diff O ring. I found online the size. let me know if you happen to have this please. 2mmX28mm Buna-N 70. Thats what I found online from a few different people who had their stock next to that and measured both. But i do know you cant believe everything you read off the net.
