Installing air mass meter -G70-
To ensure the proper function of the air mass meter -G70- it is important to observe the following notes and instructions.
  Note
t  If the air filter element is very dirty or wet, dirt or water could reach the air mass meter -G70- and affect the air mass value. This would lead to loss of power, since a smaller injection quantity is calculated.
t  Always use genuine part for air filter element.
t  Use a silicone-free lubricant when installing the intake hose.
t  Secure all hose connections with the correct type of hose clips (same as original equipment): → Parts catalogue
–  Check for salt residue, dirt and leaves in air mass meter and air intake hose (engine intake side).
–  Check for dirt in air duct leading to air filter element. If necessary, clean salt residue, dirt and leaves out of air cleaner housing (top and bottom sections); wash out or use a vacuum cleaner as required.
–  If air cleaner element has been removed, blow out water drain in bottom section of air cleaner with compressed air.
–  If only the air mass meter (without housing) has been renewed separately, tighten bolts to specified torque.
t  Tightening torque: 4 Nm
The remaining installation steps are carried out in the reverse sequence.
