mr_fusion 0 Posted January 24, 2007 If you disconnect the plug to the MAF does it behave the same way? Also have you cleaned out the ISV? as it may be stuck shut. What year is it i.e is it OBD1 or OBD2? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hayes100 0 Posted January 25, 2007 well i have taken the maf cable off and it made no difference does that mean its broke? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CazzaVR 0 Posted January 25, 2007 Usually on OBD1 cars, it should splutter and die when the MAF is unplugged. Sounds like it could well be the MAF. Definately worth checking the ISV too. Whereabouts are you? I've got a spare MAF you could try. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
