if you don't see it in the intake tube then it is part of the mass air flow sensor.

The MAF sensor is located in the air cleaner housing closest to the throttle body. You have to separate the housing from the tube and then separate the inner section. (inner and outer). The MAF sensor is held on by two torx screws.

Spray clean...and wait to dry. Then assemble...and feel the difference.

George dont waste your money on the throttle body spacer unless you also plan on replacing both of the muffler bearings and the referberator modulater .

Seriously do a search on the spacer and you will see there is not any inprovement on mpg's on the superduties.
