MAF QUESTION
hi
got some codes leading me to maf unit. (99 wagon)
car hesitates under load......
my question - when i unplug the maf and drive it there is no hesitaion and pulls strong...sure you get a check engine light which clears when it is plugged back with a scanner...
1) does this point to a bad maf..
i have tried cleaning it but not much improvement.
2) do i wait for the car to adapt first.
thanks

What
are the codes? Those help up with the diagnostics.
www.autohausaz.com has new Maf cheap and free shipping.
Did you clean by taking it apart and using crc brand maf cleaner.

Not good
it is a heated thermistor. Any residue fries the unit.
What are the codes.
Never use carb cleaner on a maf.
