![]() ![]() simply is seem to be leading towards action where you seem to state do nothing. However, you negate my solution and offer no path in return. True I have provided no evidence that it will work other than past experience but the OP can test my method and yield a result (whether possitive or negative). Conent will get as high as 50-60 percent. ![]() customer does not ever use E85, this vehicle does not contain a fuel/alcohol content sensor, uses an algorithm in the ECM to determine alcohol content. ![]() I don't doubt your skills as a mechanic i simply ponder upon the fact that you say I'm wrong yet provide no evidence of why. This has been a re-occurring issue over the past two years and is continuing to get worse. I'm not trying to say that this is the best or only way to check a MAF but, for the average enthusiast, this is the only method I know of rather than paying a shop.įinally, if my method is so wrong or useless why have you not posted the correct way. Plugging the maf back in yeilded a bad idle again. When the maf was unpluged and the car was cranked it idled fine. However, I will state that these cars were dealing with rough idles as well as other factors. I have used it on two cars, with sucsess of diagnosing a failing MAF. Replace the MAF Sensor and Watch the Reading Reading of a good MAF sensor at idle Replace the MAF sensor if it is faulty. If either of those is either bad or out of whack, the engine could certainly die. You may not like this method, you may not think it will work. Test the MAF Sensor Reading Wiggle the electrical connector and the wires and see if that causes a spike, which indicates the MAF sensor is faulty. I believe if you unplug the MAF, the computer will use the TPS and ACT to determine how much air is going (should be going) through the MAF. But most people don't have acesses to the equipment needed to run a ful diagnostics. My method may not be the best most technical way to do it. ![]()
