Car stalls. Hard start. MAF questions

I hear you, worth a try. Yes you can clean it more easily with it out but I wouldn't bother.

If you have checked and there is likely no unmetered air then I would highly recommend swapping in a junkyard MAF at this point, to complete/confirm the diagnosis. Make sure it is a Bosch MAF.

: eBay MAF for V70 r or t5. Will this work in my GLT

Okay the car has been running fine with the MAF disconnected but I can notice I'm getting worse gas mileage.

Is there a difference with the MAF on a 1998 V70 GLT which is what I have.

And a 1998 V70 r or a V70 t5 which is a MAF that I found on eBay

Can I put the v70r V70 t5 MAF In my V70 GLT

You need Bosch # 0 280 217 107
For pre '99 cars.
'99+ have Denso management.

Ok cool. Thanks!

May try to clean it with MAF specific cleaner one more time.

I used brake cleaner. (Maybe I messed it up with that? )

Should I try once more with MAF cleaner?

Ok, I know it's supposed to be Bosch only for this part...

But have u guys had any luck, or has anyone, installed this Duralast unit?

PART number DL-3043

Thoughts?

After a brake cleaner it would be toast even if it had a chance to be cleaned with proper cleaner.

Don't waste your time and money in anything that isn't Bosch # 0 280 217 107.

You will be chasing your tail.

Used Bosch one from a junkyard would be better than anything aftermarket when it comes to sensors on these cars.
ECT,O2,Maf,TPS....etc...must be oem.

MAF connector can also be a culprit.
All of them eventually fail at this age.
After a brake cleaner you will need new one anyway...but if problem persists...maf connector is next suspect.

Will throw it in and see how it does!

Thanks for the info guys

Remove negative battery cable while installing new Maf in order to reset ecu and fuel trims.
