HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Still wont start
:pat: After doing the deck plate mod my truck won't start. Let me give you the full break down of what I did. Cut the hole in the airbox, washed out plastic shavings with maf sensor still inside ( i know I shouldn't have done it but the one screw would not come out). Put it all back together and this is when I had problems. The truck will start only for about two seconds. I cleaned the MAf with electrical cleaner and I reseated the EFI fuses. It seems like its not getting fuel. My next move is to get and Olmmeter and test the MAF. A new MAF is about $150 that I don't want to spend if i don't have to. Help before I spend the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Did you maybe pull a fuse and forget to put it back in? |
Check all of your vacuum lines near where you were working if any and the connection b/w air box and throdle body.
Your symptoms sound like loss of vacuum. Sam |
If it will start for only 2 seconds, I'm willing to bet it IS your maf sensor. It's super delicate, and I bet it got damaged. The truck should however still run, just terribly. Start it, and give it gas, I bet you can keep it running (crappy, but running). Good call on testing the MAF.

Thanks
It worked! I tightened everything up one more time just to make sure. I started the truck and she still didn't want to run , but I kept giving her gas and then she decide to purr like a kitten. All it took was a little gas and the computer getting used to the extra air coming into the air box. THANKS for all your help!
