You will find the MAF sensor just at the otherside of the airbox on the air intake pipework, its very easy to remove with just two screw and the removal of the pipe. It can give low MPG if it is dirty or if it its failing/failed.

Have you noticed a drop in performance, as I would expect it slightly if the MAF has gone.
