Re: TPI Trouble...!

Take the intake elbows off and let the MAF dry out for a couple hours incase you got water in there. Also let the motor itself air dry for a couple hours and try again.

Re: TPI Trouble...!

This happened two weeks ago, It was driven for 4 hrs running bad that day hoping it would clean up and oh yah I needed to get home, I just tried to start it today to start a trouble shoot but it wouldn't start at all, fires every now and then with the peddle depressed a bit - it's getting fuel I can smell it so then I started replacing parts.
thought I had messed up the MAF but I guess it is something else...
