Newbie Question

Im a newbie and i know it. My question is what is a MAF. I know it regulates the air, but is it visible if you pop the hood and some1 takes a look at it.

Sort of...the MAF is the Mass Air Flow sensor. It would be in the air ducting from the air filter housing to the throttle body somewhere. So it is visible in that regard. Usually a big round black cylinder with an electrical connector...Luos or FormulaLT1 will probably throw a picture up here for you if they read this...

It is visable.
It is between the throttle body and the airbox lid.
