Who design this MAP sensor clip?

I end up breaking the sqeeze lock and cracking the connector. The little red slide lock is hidden on the top of the connection and impossible to reach with a finger let alone a screwdriver... The lil' red slide lock is the only thing holding the clip now... But I guess that will work... UGHHH!

I did get it off but now I'm looking for a 33mm socket to remove the sensor so I can clean it...

But I'm making this post because the simple fact that DC put that lil' red slide lock on top to keep you from removing the connector easy...

I noticed the same thing,kinda tough to mess with isn't it?

On the 2002 MAP sensors... You can use a 1 1/8 (which is just a bit big) socket to remove the sensor for cleaning. Used a little bit of brake parts cleaner and compressed air to dry it out.

Made a world of difference to my truck it quit smoking every where. Now I get a quick little cloud black cloud when I jump on the skinny pedal with low boost. Really hard to see to the cloud... I had to tweak the passenger mirror in and down just to see it.... I mean small amount of smoke.

I thing this will improve the MPG now... I hope!

I thought it was just me. The red lock on the connector was down and to the back on the connector on mine and I thought I'd never get it off!! When I tried to replace the red lock I never could get it to clip in. It's in the glove box now!!
