great news. when mine went bad, unplugging it cured the problem right away. didn't have to disconnect the battery. glad your car started running right after you reset the ECU.

GREAT NEWS!
put the new MAF, reset the ECU, and the car feels better than ever.

i would like to say that i gained HP, but the fact of the matter is car probably got the power back hehe, love the feel, absolutely no hesitation when gas pedal is pushed, car responds great.

Hey DJ-
I got MAF in too. Only drove for a very short ride. The car did respond much better.
I've started a new thread - should i be worried. When I went to replace my MAF I noticed it. Can you take a look at that thread and tell what you think.
TIA
