I just purchased a 92 VR4. Car would barely run with the MAF plugged in. Thinking it was just a MAF I brought a know good MAF from a 93 TSI talon and swapped it but it didn't change anything. Car runs okay with it not plugged in but obviously not the greatest. I am thinking it's a intake leak. I am going to run a boost check on it but wanted to see if anyone had any additional insight.
Also, I should note that the car had a ECU swapped in it before i purchases it (the old ones caps went bad). But the ECU swapped into it was from a Talon. Should that matter? Found some post that says the galant's MAF is different then the talon's and the ECU would be different
I also noticed the boost solenoid is bypass (plugged in but no vacuum lines going to it) and so is another solenoid attached to the air filter (assuming purge). Did some searching but it sounds like that shouldn't matter
Thanks in advance!
