Teesetz Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 94 is giving me intermittent idle surge and stalling at idle. I am hoping I have found the culprit and it’s not iAc. Any thoughts are welcome. Got a new connector coming, going to start there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slartibartfast Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 The MAF connector is a common trouble point on these, possibly because they get reefed on when people check the air filter. Recently mine started having a stumble just off-idle. Breathe on the throttle and it would try to die, but then catch itself. I found that pressing on the MAF connection cleared it up, so I unplugged it, tweaked the female pins in the plug to tighten them up a little, and stuck it back together. Good so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpecialWarr Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 I did the same thing, and added a clean ground to one of the seemingly random bolts in the engine bay next to the MAF off of the new plug that I wired in. Not that I had an idle issue other than a super dirty IA and the requisite stumble while getting off of the highway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teesetz Posted May 31, 2020 Author Share Posted May 31, 2020 Thanks for the info! I took off the MAF and housing and gave it a good cleaning. I also switched back to a wix filter because I’d heard horror stories of the knandn getting oil on the maf, crap sticking to it, and sending fooey voltage. Also cleaned about 2 shop towels worth of carbon build up from the throttle body housing. Running like a top now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
