It did look like a "tube de Pitot" which is for measuring gas speed.

A MAF sensor measures air flow in both directions. A MAP sensor only measures air flow in one direction.

Showoff.

Showoff.

Don, I could wax lyrical about the benefits of MAF over MAP and intake manifold design for hours, but this is a photography forum ... .

Your turn.

26 years of smoking finally pays off! Actually I’m very happy to be smoke free for going on 9 months now, and believe I have officially kicked the habit.

Now let me see what’s I’ve got laying around here...

Alrighty; what’s this a part of?

Looks bike'ish

 

[Mountain_Man_79]

Nothing to do with bikes

hand guard

Not a “guard” of any sort.

Holder for something

 

[Mountain_Man_79]

Now we’re getting places

 

[Zapp DJR]

Does the held thing do "boom" or "clunk"?

 

[Mountain_Man_79]

Not unless it falls over

Congrats, Chris. Hardest personal thing I ever did. Had my last cigarette on 22 June 1982. I still consider myself a non-smoking cigarette addict ...

And I also instantly recognised that object this morning.

Every time I go to hospital, they ask:

- Are you a smoker? No.
- Have you ever smoked? Yes.
- When did you stop? 1982.
- How many did you smoke a day?
- For how long?

All duly noted.

Thankfully, my lungs are still in excellent condition, specially for a chronic asthmatic.
