jimmy leave the maf sensor alone mate, chances are your problem is related to something you' ve done. take the filter off again and check you aint disturbed any of the vacuum hoses or wires first

Jimmy what problem are you getting, crap idle?
I put a filter on mine a while back, M's K+N, and it idled ok but when you put your foot on the throttle it spluttered like buggery. Never found out what it could be but as soon as i took it off and replaced the original filter it ran great again :? So if its somethin like this youve got then i would replace the original filter setup and see what the effects of that are, you can narrow your search down considerably id say.

So i take it the Pipercross filter was working fine?JIMMYBACK B said:the filter im using is a biltzantgtir said:
If so then have you done any other jobs or changed anything since that time? Thats the first thing i would do, go back over what youve done before it went bad and tick off each job as you prove its ok.
Id look at the Air / Fuel mixture too, maybe take it to a garage that has an emissions tester and see what emissions your getting, you can normally tell if its running to lean etc then that may point you in a better direction.
It could always be a sensor to, the list is enormous mate, start at the small things and wrk your way through to the expensive big jobs that way it saves you time and money.

As long as it isnt full of crap it should be ok.

The picture shown before doesn't show the actual meter, there is a seperate little hole inside with some delicate elements in there. They possibly may need cleaning or could be damaged :? I just used a good solvent cleaner/degreaser but didn't spray it directly from the can as this may be too powerful, i put some in a water spray pump thingy!... It did improve things however i didn't have a rough idle :roll: Good luck, be careful the elements are tiny

Try isopropyl alcohol from www.maplin.co.uk , cut the bottom of a 5 litre antifreeze bottle up to sit the maf in and let it bathe in their for a couple of days, thats what i did anyway, jeff
