I had a similar problem, kept on stalling and running rough about 10 years ago, turned out that some idiot at the garage had refitted it back to front.
It will fit either way round,but work efficiently only if correct way round, might be worth turning it around and trying.

If you also use Realoem with your VIN (last 7 characters in ‘Serial Number’ field) it will tell you the right part number for your model/year/engine and you can then search for that number.

The sensor will be under the ‘Fuel Preparation’ subset.

Hi Back again.. sorry MAF sensor.. after waiting two week for euro parts to deriver my MAF sensor, which I change this afternoon.. is there any thing I need to reset. O:-)

I did go for run round the block in the car about 2 miles, seems ok.. :) but when I put the car in park and neutral, put my foot on the gas.. only 1000 revs held it there, then the  revs drop off and went back up with out me moving my foot on the peddle by its shef.. is there still something wrong.. or I am looking for problems.. :(

Thank you very much.

Cheers

Andy
