Default MAF sensors 99/00

Any of your old Maf sensors required as pissed off with blowing these , now doing research into what blows them, underdstand its not the MAFs themselves that are causing the problem, but another underlying problem.

Have a circuit board electrician on the case and need a few to work on to find out if these can be repaired or a preventable soloution in stopping them blowing.

Asking for the goodwill of Scoobynet to send them to me by the cheapest postage possibly rather than bin them.

Just send me a PM for my address if you are willing to send one

Thanks all

Big Daz

What air filter do you have?

The MY99-00 are that sensitive I'd make sure you stick with the airbox and a dry filter.

I've read of filter oil (excessive) and vibration (unsecured CAIs etc.) quoted as reasons for failure.
