Cret Posted November 20, 2004 Posted November 20, 2004 Bah. My source for another MAF can't help Looks like I might not be back on the road after all.
Cret Posted November 20, 2004 Posted November 20, 2004 << Do you really think we can strip the engine down in a day and re-seal it? erm dude ? >> Dude, if you want a hand before then to get the motor ready for removal give me a shout.
dooahhdoo Posted November 20, 2004 Posted November 20, 2004 Ian hasnt got one? You will need to explain to him as he doesnt know what one is (I have been through it with him) Tell him its the mass airflow sensor which is a little black box with a thin wire in it on the cold air intake. Bet he can find you one as he has 2 imprezas Edited to add cheers Jim dude sweeeeet
CustomScoobyIOM Posted November 20, 2004 Author Posted November 20, 2004 2 days maximum Nick dude But I reckon a day with a few of us there. MAF sensor Jim dude unplug it and try it. Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!
Cret Posted November 20, 2004 Posted November 20, 2004 He's got one mate from that written off Impreza but the plastic that the pipes go on is broken so he said he's going to keep it as an emergency spare as it's not really worth selling it. Will have to find somewhere else to get one. Bah. He was saying he's thinking about building an impreza rally car too..... Andi - Ian has a couple of sets of 15" alloys apparently so you ought to give him a buzz mate.
Cret Posted November 20, 2004 Posted November 20, 2004 << MAF sensor Jim dude unplug it and try it. Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet! >> Dude - that wouldn't show up if it's temperamental though would it? It works fine most of the time then throws a fit occasionally and makes the car cut out & not start etc. Can't think what on earth else could be wrong besides the maf & ignition relay and I've already changed the relay. Another idea though, does the ecu only earth through its mounts where it bolts on? Am wondering if the nuts need tightening seeing as the ecu has been in & out several times maybe....
CustomScoobyIOM Posted November 20, 2004 Author Posted November 20, 2004 Aye good point. Might be worth giving a direct earth feed to the ecu from the battery??
dooahhdoo Posted November 20, 2004 Posted November 20, 2004 << Aye good point. Might be worth giving a direct earth feed to the ecu from the battery?? >> Our resident tart has done that Cue DaveK .............................................................................
Cret Posted November 20, 2004 Posted November 20, 2004 << Aye good point. Might be worth giving a direct earth feed to the ecu from the battery?? >> A good tip dude, but to be honest Iwas thinking more along the lines of actually tightening the ecu mount nuts a little beyond finger tight (cough)....
andy_bray Posted November 20, 2004 Posted November 20, 2004 Morning Rasher dude ,morning all. Been sick all last night and in the morning ,,court something off the young fella
Cret Posted November 20, 2004 Posted November 20, 2004 Morning dudes! Bummer Andi - I think there's a lot of people with stomach bugs at the moment mate.
Cret Posted November 20, 2004 Posted November 20, 2004 Nah but I've just been out on the bike getting soaked & covered in mud then riding home and I'm llike an ice lolly now!
dooahhdoo Posted November 21, 2004 Posted November 21, 2004 << its on its way!! >> We are on the gulf stream here rasher dude so it has to be 'really' cold for it to snow We had a large amount of hail 2 years ago that made the roads very slippery though which was cool
rasher Posted November 21, 2004 Posted November 21, 2004 << We are on the gulf stream >> sweet, that sounds very exotic
andy_bray Posted November 21, 2004 Posted November 21, 2004 The sti will be staying in the garage dudes..Have you warmed up Jim from your bike ride??? 20 days off the fags...
Cret Posted November 21, 2004 Posted November 21, 2004 Yeah, just about matey. Good work on the fags dude. That must be hella hard at this point but you're doing yourself a HUGE favour by packing them in!
