I seem to be getting mixed answers to this quesiton.


Thanks all.......
According to the technician who repaired my car when I had a bad MAF - yes it can. His explanation was that the fuel/air mixture became too rich and unburned fuel was going to the catalytic convertor. This caused a flashing CEL. Don't drive the car until you know what is causing the problem.
