Re: maf help please
Sounds like the MAF is underreporting. When you disconnect it, the ECM thinks there is no airflow, and very little fuel is delivered to the engine.
Ideally, you should scan the ECM to see what is going on. That can tell you if the MAF is underreporting. The only other way to tell is to backprobe it with a DVM, and see what the voltage is when the engine is running, but thats even harder.
Who made the MAF that you bought as a replacement? Its possible that its output calibration isnt the same as teh stock one.
