cyanide-is-a-way-out · 11-02-2007, 04:27 PM

well it was some stuff said to clean the sensor in seconds blash blah blah and the thing i cleaned was the sensor right behind the air filter

Maybe you should let it sit till it dry completly.

Or the MAF is probably messed up now.

cyanide-is-a-way-out · 11-02-2007, 07:56 PM

make sure its connected, mine i was trying to figure out what was going on with my car and had the same symtom, then i remembered that my MAF was the last thing i worked on. forgot to plug the harness in.

i made sure it was plugged in i tried to drive it today and it drove fine then all of the sudden it lost power and started shaking violently and jerking

You didnt unscrew the two phillips screws by the connector did you?
