Q: How do you remove the air filter housing and intake air connector on V6 and four-cylinder Toyota Tacoma?
A: Start by removing the ground wire and disconnecting the air intake duct on V6 models. Remove the engine cover, air filter box, and MAF/IAT sensor. Disconnect the PCV fresh air inlet hose and the hose clamp securing the air filter box to the Throttle Body. Remove the box mounting bolts, disconnect the vacuum hose, and remove the box. Inspect and replace the box insulator grommets if needed. For four-cylinder models, remove the air intake duct and MAF/IAT sensor. Remove the air filter element and box. For the intake air connector, disconnect the electrical connector from the air pressure sensor, the vacuum hose, and the PCV fresh air inlet hose. Detach the electrical harness and vacuum hose for the air pressure sensor and remove the intake air connector.
