Before anybody gets mad, ive looked through other threads and have yet to find someone with the same problem.

Anyways today i replaced my stock intake with an aftermarket one. Now a few weeks ago id done the ISR mod, everything ran fine until a replaced the piping and filter today with the new kit.

It cranked fine, but no throttle response just boggs when u hit the gas. It will kinda run if u give it gas slowly but any faster it will shut off.After this i even hooked everything stock the way i had it.... same thing acting like its not getting gas or air either or. I figured the MAF couldve went bad idk ANY HELP!??

 

All the vacuum hoses firmly attached and without splits/dry rot? Try re-seating any electrical connectors that you may have had loose or possibly even bumped.

 

yeah theres no leaking around my hoses. Ive over looked my plug ins. the only thing i can think is while moving around the maf sensor, the wires come undone or wor loose where the plug in meets the wires

 

A good area to investigate for sure.

 

yeah i wouldnt doubt it if my maf is bad

 

I'm assuming it was running ok before you changed the intake? What causes you to think the MAF suddenly went bad?

Pick up a can of MAF cleaner and give it a good cleaning.

 

Yes just fine. That wat i dont get how it just went.. blah all of a sudden. Because it still runs the same (bad) after i put the stock stuff back on

And l assumed moving the maf around the plug in wires might have came loose in the boot or torn

 

That's the problem. If you loosened the screws instead of lifting the clip for it to pull out, you've hosed it.

 

So takin the screws out messed it up. Is there a way to fix it

 

im having the same issue but i found that my intake hose had a crack. the main hose has to be 100% vacuum tight in order to open the flap in the MAF which turns on ur fuel pump.. im doing the ISR mod tonight so ill let you know how mine tured out.

 

ok. today i cranked it (not touching it from yesterday) and it ran perfect. It has the stock intake on it still, just no silencer box. so i guess somthin reset idk. ima put my new intake back on it this weekend and see if the same thing happens

 

yea mine would crank the frist time (cooled down) but wouldnt start again afterwards. well good luck

 

Yeah. I drove around town today, car wash, get gas, it never done it again. So I hope its fine. I'll find out this weekend when I put the new intake on it

 

well i did the ISR mod and it seemed to fix my issue. tho its overheating now.

 

hmm thats weird, that shouldnt really have anything to do with removing that should it?

 

its not the removing that helped. its the replacing and making a better seal at the Tbody. my old hose was split. th split lost vacuum. so the MAF flap wouldnt open so the fuel pump wouldnt turn on. and there was no air going in either.

 

i meant to cause the overheating ha. but mine was opening u could hear the fuel pump. Then it was still runnin bad but when it sat over night..not changing anything it ran fine. When i put my cold air back on im going to make sure everything is sealed

 

yea the overheating thing is just one more issue.
