I have the new bitty for the maf sensor...

but.. i did not look at the screws holding the sensor inplace before...

is there anything i can use to undo these screws, and do them back up again?

They're torque screw heads, aren't they? Ikkle stars? You should be able to pick up a set from Halfords, etc.

SCOSaltire

aye.. seems they have a small raised bit in the middle?

i have a set from halfords, but no hole for the centre bit

These are Torq. the bit in the middle
is the "tamper-proof" part.
you can get bits/drivers with a corresponding
hole in the middle.
it's not too difficult to 'remove' the bit
in the middle (i use a small bladed screwdriver)

Phil,

If you have a look here, even a pair of pliers will get them off

Wouldn't recommend it though.

So, did you get yours replaced?

Well, third time lucky, they are not "torque", or "Torq." but "Torx"

SCOSaltire

know for definate where I can buy one?

know the correct size?

i understand they are security ones because of the wee bar in the middle.

Dave T-S

Get a set of Torx bits, then they will all be covered - and yes, mention you need the security ones with the pin in the middle.

Any decent tool shop with have them - and they are also in the Screwfix and Machine Mart catalogues.

I bought a set of Torx bits to fit my HKS racing suction kit and they dont fit

Jake

I found them try http://www.screwfix.com part no 18983
