Spray 10 to 15 spurts of the MAF cleaner onto the hot wire or plate. Never touch the hot wire or plate with the spray cleaner straw or anything else. If your sensor has a screen, use the cleaner to ...

Most of the voltages start at zero and have a high end of 5, 8 or 12 volts. For instance, 1.0v means low and 5.0v means high. Or 1.0 means cold and 5.0 means hot, hot, hot.

Q James, I have a 1988 Corvette Tuned Port Injection (TPI) that randomly sets a code 36: a mass airflow (MAF) sensor function fault. I have replaced the Electro ...

This was the case for [Rob] and his Porsche 944, which had relied on an old-fashioned mechanical air flow meter (AFM). He decided to replace this with a modern mass air flow (MAF) sensor instead ...

When the air mass sensor on my car is plugged in, it drives terribly, goes into limp mode before 3000rpm. When the sensor is unplugged it drives okay. What can I do? Why will my Citroen Xsara not rev ...

GM has issued a recall for certain units of the Chevy Low Cab Forward 3500 and 4500 models due to an issue with the mass air flow (MAF) sensor.

Since air density changes with air temperature, an intake manifold-mounted sensor is also used. Production-based Speed Density computers also utilize an oxygen (O2) sensor mounted in the exhaust ...

A device in the throttle body, the mass airflow, or MAF, sensor helps the engine computer determine the proper air-fuel mixture by measuring the mass of the air flowing past it. Because a precise ...

This sensor type is based on the principle that if a mass is maintained at a constant temperature (above ambient air temp), the thermal loss is proportional to the flow of air over that mass. The ...

He decided to replace this with a modern mass air flow (MAF) sensor instead, and documented the process online. The output of the sensors was compared with a rig built using a vacuum cleaner to ...
