Idle problems & maf sensor question
 

Hello. Sorry for the bad english. I have problems with the engine running at idle. I cleaned the throttle and the MAF sensor. This partially helped, but then the problem manifested itself again.
When I disconnect the Maf sensor and start the car, it turns off. This is normal?
Today, after the problems started, I disconnected the Maf sensor. I tried to start a car. Then i reconnected the Maf sensor. The problem is gone. What does this mean?
Thank you very much for your help.
