'94 Galant MAF sensor issue
Hi all,
I have a '94 Galant on which a friend did some mods claiming I could get a few extra ponies and a mile or two extra per gallon.
First he cut open the air cleaner box for more flow. He put in a K&N filter, and pulled out the honeycomb thin metal pieces and opened up the passages between the air filter and the sensor.
Great, you say. No, not really. He wasn't knowledgable in the fact that the sensor wasn't anything to do with "smog' as he claimed.
Now I have a car that idles like crap (read stalls) and runs only with the sensor unplugged. And that gives me no use whatsoever, as now a host of issues have cropped up. First is my mileage is no better than 18 / gal. Second is abrupt gear shifts, and the third is a sticking of the accelerator at about 1,500 to 2,000 RPM.
I have had no issues prior to the mods my friend made. Now, I can't find any sensors with the entire assembly in tact. Any other places I can look? What about OEM?
