can anyone tell me please what is an air flow meter and how much is it for a 1993 uk tt manual and will the car start without it? :confused:

In basic terms :

 

It measures the amount of air going into the car, and ratio's the amount of fuel to whatever it reads!!

 

Not sure but i dont think the car will go v.well - if at all - without one!

 

It wont know how much fuel to put in, therefore over/under fuel all the time !!

 

Think thats what it does anyway !

Might be wrong but you should be looking about £110 quid for one

£110 for a new AFM! I wish! New there around £450 from Nissan UK, you can get one from the states for around £320 shipped, 2nd hand there like hens teeth.

The car WILL run without it! It won't run too well though and you'll have a rev limit of 2500rpm. The ecu uses the TPS to judge engine load and fuel accordingly. Contact Vijay on here who knows of a source for Z32 MAFs ;)

sorry for the low quote haha

thanks guys i asked nissan del. and they said about £800 for a AFM but i have got one for £100 what do u guys think was that a good deal?

Right who said £800 print the number on here they need some serious abuse LOL.

Each to their own when it comes to fitting second hand parts,but NO WAY would I be paying over £100 for a second hand AFM.

thanks mac i will make sure they get that abuse from me, anyway the one i got looks in good cond. and thats all i could find

Hope it's ok mate.

thanks mate so do i coz i dont think i can afford a new one
