    Car dies when maf sensor is plugged in, any suggestions?

    On a cold start it will start with the maf sensor plugged in will idle extremely low and then find idle but if it is shut down and turned back on again it won’t start if you unplug the sensor it will start up and run fine but rich. Has anyone had this problem/ any suggestions to solve it?

    It will run with no maf as the ecu will just run on default settings. MAFs do go back due to age. If you need a new one hit me up as I've got a brand new one in the box ��
