Hey all,

 

I posted a while ago about an erratic idle and hesitation whilst driving, on my lunch today i checked the maf and maf connections to make sure it wasnt loose or dirty, and now the car wont go above 2500 revs :helpsmilie: Have i fooked something or do i need to reset something? :-S

NO the maf has failed. Defalt is max revs 2500, you will just have to drive home very slowly.

how fragile is the maf? there was a bit of dirt in the housing so i gently blew it out, could that have broken it? or is there a good chance that that was the cause of the erratic idle and ive just pushed it over the edge?

 

Also, where can you get replacement mafs from?

Check and clean the connector both parts+ try and see if any wires are broken.

Replacement mafs from 300zx.co.uk .lol.

connectors are clean, but the mesh has a fair few holes in it :-S dont know how thats happened. (and i dont mean the holes that are meant to be in the mesh lol).

 

Who do i contact on 300zx.co.uk to get one? need it pretty quickly lol.

Well i took the maf out to give it a quick clean and noticed it was damp so left it out to dry. Seems that when i put it back in i didnt plug it back in. The car ran sweet as a nut all the way home but as soon as i got home the idle went back to low and erratic again :-(
