Default Help Needed

Hi All

Hoping someone can maybe help. Having problems with my car (blob sti). Once warmed up it keeps cutting out at low revs, generally when changing gear. Was told it could be the MAF so managed to get hold of a working second hand one but i have just fitted it and car is exactly the same. So do you think it could be another faulty MAF or something else that is causing the problem.

Cheers

Your symptoms can be caused by a number of different faults, do you have any warning lights on the dash ?.

As far as I know its plug and play as the ecu usually picks up any changes so don't need resetting, check Ur idle control valve as that can sometimes cause problems or any cuts in pipes etc
