This confirms what we have been saying all along, while some have some luck with aftermarket MAF, the only thing that works is Bosch MAF.

This is a safety device (if you stall on the highway it is not fun, been there done that!). MAF is not something I want to play with. When my MAF died, I got a Bosch for $150. Pay now or pay later.

Or go to junk yard and get a used Bosch MAF, still better than brand-new aftermarket junk.
