Did you remove the MAF sensor from the MAF housing or did you try to take the screen out without touching the sensor? I found one post where someone just laid it flat on a table and punched it and the flow straightener out, then re-installed the plastic flow straightener.

I don't have the right tool (looks like a keyed torx) to remove the sensor from the housing. Anyone know specifically what I need? I was thinking I could just remove the sensor, but it in a baggy, and then take my time on the housing. Any ideas?

Thanks!

You should be able to pick one of those up at check or your local tools speciality shop. I believe it just has two s-torx bolts then the sensor should pull straight out? Good luck.
