ardandy 0 Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 Random idling, overfuelling, erratic power delivery.Basically the engine will have a cold! Link to post Share on other sites
rigs 0 Posted January 3, 2008 Report Share Posted January 3, 2008 If the MAF is completely dead the engine will stall a lot, be a pain to start and have no power for the short periods where it runs. Link to post Share on other sites

james4287 1 Posted January 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2008 mine has a K&N on a obd2, for the lengthy list of problems i'm having with mine see my other thread in this forum! the thought of trying a standard airbox has crossed my mind aswell, though so many poeple on here seem to have no troubles.
