I am still tweeting the vararam from over the weekend. I am wondering how far I need to insert the airflow sensor into the orange tubing off the throttle body? I noticed the sensor has some black rubber rings around it. Do I insert the sensor passing the rings or to the rings ?

I press it in all the way to the small locking tab that stock out of the base of the sensor.

:) All good info, just be sure the little index tab is at 12:00 for proper airflow sense-

Good luck

You could always reference back to how far it stuck into the OEM tube and the orientation when you pulled it out of that tube.
