Re: need some help!!!

Did you clean the pins on the maf pigtail? Boost leak test? Having the maf plug off will throw it in limp mode and allow it to run rich with major leaks. As soon as you plug it in it will read normal but die cause of leaks

I checked the ecu and there were no burnt caps or anything, and as for the maf it was running fine with the 2g maf for a few weeks now just recently died. Replaced maf with another and same results.

I have not checked for corroded pins yet so ill do that, and I've done a boost leak test already and no major boost leak but ill probably do it again.

Thanks again ill try these ideas and see if it works.
