I got mine on, the other night, by
setting the MAF screen-down on the
kitchen floor and carefully wiggling
it on there with some tens of pounds
of force. It'll go. An older, stiffer
bellows might be tougher. A little
wax or soap might've helped.

Go look at your LTRIMs. Did they change just a bit after adding the MAF?

If so, your WOT A/F probably changed too.

But my LTRIMS are around +4 and +5 cruising, and 0 to -1 at idle. It leaned the car a tad bit, but my 02's are showing where its running richer at WOT?? .90 instead of the .87 with the stock MAF <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

The MAF should have come with bellows, mine did. Did you buy yours used?
