Maf

[yellerandahalf]

Did the MSP come with a different MAF than the regular protege? I can't seem to find any info on it.

[Moeed]

no, its the same.

 

[yellerandahalf]

hmm, well I guess that rules that out. Perhaps it varied per year. Can someone give me the serial # off of their MAF please?
-mateo

 

[Moeed]

I think it did vary by year. Trust me, if the msp had a better maf, i would soo be slapping it in. I need to get a custom maf from nick.

What happened to your MAF, did you break it?

 

[Alejo_NIN]

i dunno if it is true or not, but i've been told that the maf sensor from the MSP 03 is different and better than the one for 03.5..

makes sense? not at all...but this guy swears by it...

 

[yellerandahalf]

nothing was wrong with my MAF, I just sold it for some cash when I went to megasquirt. Who told you that the MSP MAF's were different?

[Alejo_NIN]

i won't tell coz prolly he's from here....

but it didn't make sense to me either
i think what happened was that he had a screwed maf and wihtout knowing decided to change it bakc to the 03 one and it worked...

duh...

lol

 

[yellerandahalf]

ah hah, i c.

 

[yellerandahalf]

can someone pull some Voltages from their MAF for me at several points? For instance, idle, 2.5k, 4k? That would be tremendously helpful. Reading from my O2 sensor, the car is going very lean when you get off throttle, and trying to kill itself. I thought it was going really rich, but I was wrong.

It should lean out as you slow down.

 

[Bigg Tim]

about 2v at idle when the engine is warm or around 2.1-2.2v when the engine is cold

 

[yellerandahalf]

alright, then it's ok. It's reading about 2.08 volts at 160 degrees. that should be ok.

 

[Alejo_NIN]

you might have a cracked manifold...my mani was cracked and i was getting a CEL saying i was too lean...

 

[yellerandahalf]

ermmmm somehow I doubt it, but it's worth checking. Where did yours crack?

[Bigg Tim]

alright, then it's ok. It's reading about 2.08 volts at 160 degrees. that should be ok.

YUP, you're good!!

I have a big MAF lying around if you want to buy it.

 

[yellerandahalf]
