Did you try flipping the silicone connector around? It should fit then, it's tight, but it will fit with some work.

As Rangersfan says, turning it around is the only way you will get it on.

Yes. More air requires a new tune.

What I did is a bit unconventional but it got the job done. I put it on the way it came off, but what I did was throw the coupling in the oven to get it nice and warm and plyable. While it was in the oven I clamped butter knives around the new maf housing and sprayed them down with WD-40. Took the coupling out of the oven and slid it down over the knives onto the housing. I then put the whole thing back in the oven to let the coupling stretch even more. After a few minutes, I took it out and removed the knives and clamp as carefully as could but the coupling popped off, but it slid right back on and I clamped it down for a perfect fit.

I would say that's unconventional.

Use the tools you have

I told my wife I have some other work to do and could she finish that part up for me.
Came back later and it was on!
