newbie troubles!!!
Hi all! new here so plz be kind
can anyone help!
I have '93 impreza wrx (which I've had for a few years now - with no problems)
last week I fitted a apexi s-afc (generation 1) but when I finished installing I started the car and the engine cut out after a few seconds!!!
I tried disconnecting the battery for a hour - still no good.
the only way the engine carries on running is if I disconnect the air flow sensor (but obviously runs like a bag of ****e).
My ecu is a subaru part but I don't think it's standard to my car (it runs about 1 bar of boost)
anyone have any ideas what the problem/cure is?
cheers guys
Mark.

I think that the old type (with dials) has only 5 wires
