Unbolt the filter and remove,loosen the large hose clamp , unplug the wires going to it.Then with a bit of twisting it should come out.Clean with brake cleaner then re attach everything.I also washed the filter in warm soapy water and left it to dry overnight.

Cheers bud, thats what i did in the end. I was looking at some instructions that i found online. I thought that the sensor was meant to come out on its own, didn't realise it was fixed in that bit of pipe. Anyway, jobs done. Not sure if that was the problem but the cars boosting properly now.

On the early cars if the MAF gets really dirty it will cause the car to run lean.
In extreme circumstance the ECU will drop into limp mode and only give about 0.6bar boost. I have seen this on a few occasions and it doesn't give an engine management warning light (CEL). |
