check engine code 36
I have a 89 GTA 350. When cold the car idles really bad. Does not die but check engine light pops on with only code 36. When it warms up the car adjusts the idle by itself and runs perfect. Have to fix to get car inspected.

Re: check engine code 36
I found this for you to check-out. Let me know if you need more info. or don't know where or what these parts are.I just did a search for "CODE 36" : Code 36 [/B]MAF sensor burn-off voltage was missing. Check MAF sensor burn-off relay and terminal "D" on MAF*There are two Maf relays one for burn off and one for power.*The power one has heavier contacts for more amperage. It can replace the burn off but not the other way around.*For the $11 az to $14 gm, it good to just replace both. I use the heavier one in both places for ease of trouble shooting.*This Voltage (edit maf burnoff) only happens at key off and for just hot sec.*Won't throw the code till the next start up. So... everytime ya gata unhook battery, to clear the code, then start stop start recheck for C E L

Re: check engine code 36
well I went to AZ and bought the two new relays. Good news is I ran around for a couple of hours tonight and no error code. I turned the car off and on several times...... so far so good....... THANKS for keeping her on the street.
