hi guys,
my car is coming up to 157k  smiles,  ive got a slight hesitation at 1.5 to 2k revs,  ive changed the plugs and coil tubes, after my drivers side bank gasket was leaking , so ive bought all new ,
just a couple of questions
how long does a maf last?
how often can you clean them?
ive got no error codes on scanner,
averaging 15 to 18 mpg,

cheers

steve

probably not the maf,if you decide to replace it don't use a cheap after market one I tried 2 and they both gave problems,it may be your throttle body needs cleaning/replacing

hmm , good idea, if I remember rightly  the TB wasn't sqeaky clean , had a nice ring of muck in there
I think it would benefit from a good clean

ill have a look tomorrow
