serious engine hesitation maybe maf needs cleaning

[philly blunt]

i have a ka24de and i went to relocate the battery and make a short ram intakembut as i was taking the maf off i was an idiot and left it on the radiator support and it knocked off right in the dirt sand everywhere so my car runs like shit nowlike if i gve it 25% throttle all the way to redline it does fine but if i rev it at full throttle it hesitates really bad so i checked eveything grounds new plugs cleand rotor and cap still does it so i bought carb cleaner to clean the maf but i need to know how to spray it without damaging the sensors

[BoostInnovations]

holy shit...my maf may be dirty too...my car does great at partial throttle but it pops and shit at WOT and feels really boggy

[theicecreamdan]

for lack of anything douchey to respond with... just spray it in there, you'll be fine.

[240mph]

Yeah but use electric cleaner it works alot better.

[MakotoS13]

dude just soak it in MEK - methl ethyl ketone. its really good for cleaning MAF's. trust me, i junkyard hunt all the time.

[Irukandji]

Samething happened to me, just used MEK that Makoto was talking about. ^

[Wei240]

so where do you guys buy this MEK stuff?

just curious...
this sounds like i'm trying to buy drugs, lol

[theicecreamdan]

junkyard hunters, you should make a TV show

[herb-86t]

make sure you didnt break the very fine wire inside the maf. its sensitive to dropping like that. happened to my Z31 maf, not sure if the 240's are the same type of design tho.

[WILDACEX187]

yea where does one get this super MEK stuff u speak off.

[ranisron]

I have similar problems, especially in cooler weather conditions... I tried using the electrical cleaning/spray (dust spray thing), and it got a bit better (or was it my imagination).

yeah, Makoto, where do you get that drug-sound like stuff?

[MakotoS13]

home depot or lowes.

[ghostuss]

clean maf, intake valves and remove or clean the AIV. new 300zx fuel filter would also help on the smooth REVing.

[ranisron]

thanks, I'd give it a shot...
