EBP Question

Where is the ebt tube and sensor located? What should be used to clean the sensor? I had read about this in another post but can't find it.

Driver's side exhaust manifold. Specific location can vary, but is driver side none the less. Push the tube clear with anything you find, the sensor itself check to see if clogged; I would simply replace if it were.

03/04 is near the t-stat housing.

05+ is about the middle of the driver's side valve cover.

To clear the tube push something thru it like a metal wire, string trimmer line etc.

Scrape out the sensor, do not probe into the bore however.

Use MAF sensor cleaning spray, soak it in a little cap full for a few hours and then spray it off and the sensor works much better, dont actually poke at it or scrape it too much its kinda delicate. For the tube, you need heavy string trimmer string to get it through the bends. Blast with compressed air helps too.

And to add If you decide to take the Tube off spray it with wd or Brake free first , let it sit , then try to loosen the nut . Other wise a good chance on twisting the whole cotton pickin thing to a Pretzel

Update......finally got the chance to remove the ebp tube and sensor. The sensor was almost completely clogged. The tube was dirty but not as much as the sensor. Anyway I just wanted to say thanks for the advise and location of the ebp tube/sensor.
