Is this sorted? Was checking my PCV valve had suction & my V6 wouldn't idle with this out, try that and the pipe attached. I got new PCV valve from Mazda £32
Yes, another MAF and then disconnected battery for an hour, all sorted .

Re: Probe Unusable -Non Tickover

Just an update, the problem wasn't fixed at that point. A 3rd MAF fitted but still kept dying when idle needed. Blackpool looming.

Re: Tyres

I spent many a year in the tyre fitting trade. If money weren't an option I'd be fitting all 4 corners with Continentals.

Re: MAF Rejuvination

Simon, can I trial your alpines please? The spare I had I think was a spare for a reason. Works better, a lot better than my failed unit but still not quite right . Thank you :D

MAF Rejuvination

Can a faulty MAF be repaired or is it for the bin ?
