Q: What tools are needed to disconnect the Hitachi MAF for cleaning?

I tried a search, found how to do it, but not what tools are needed for the new MAF/Hitachi.

simple, pliers - just take the whole metering unit out (the black cylinder)

the only thing you need to buy is the alcohol...don't waste $ on the torx bits
