You do not have one.

Your truck uses a Manifold Absolute Pressure sensor located on the passenger side firewall.

No MAF on these trucks. Only a MAP (manifold air pressure sensor) and it is on the ac box on the passenger side.

I'm gonna take a WAG and guess you have a driveability problem you're trying to fix. If you have pulled codes post them up so we can help solve the issue, and when I say post them up I mean the exact code numbers not whatever descriptions you have found for them. Also describe your issue as best you can.

X2......

Check for codes by running the Key On Engine Off (KOEO) tests and stored code (Continuous Memory aka CM) codes.

Warm up the truck then do this: How to run a self test

Or purchased a code reader such as the Equus/Innova 3145.

List the codes by number and when they were displayed. Your truck should display two digit codes.
