Hi I brought a new age scooby was told was remapped but has the air flow meter disconnected is this normal and can a scooby be mapped without maf, when I connect cuts out straight away thanks

 

Yes they can be mafless, What model and year of car?

 

It's still got the maf but just unplugged,blob eye 53 2004 cheers

 

I don't know about all the various mafless mapped set ups
But I'm mafless and my maf is left plugged in because it uses the inlet air temp portion of the maf
If I install a separate iat sensor I could remove the maf completely , and it wouldnt make much odds to running if its plugged in or not

 

Ok thanks for the info

 

Does it have or can you see a sensor anywhere in or around the hose between the intercooler and throttle body/manifold area?

 

It's possible that the MAF is in fact buggered hence why it cuts out when it's connected.
I'd be tempted to get it to a specialist and get it checked out.

 

Happy to take a look as you seem local to me.
