Default Uh ohs, looks like I have a bad MAF

I've been getting an implausible value code off and on, about once every 3-4 weeks for a couple of months now. After changing my plugs, car started running choppy. So I put the original plugs in, thinking the new ones were no good, and still runs choppy. Hesitation, sputtering, etc. Vagged it, and am getting all kinds of MAF and misfire codes. Hopefully will be fixed this weekend. 2-1/4 years with this car, and this is my first problem. Oh well...

Hey,

While I was getting donkey punched at the shop today, the tech. told me he saw two mass air flow sensor codes that were intermittent. He cleared them and said we'd check to see if they came back before he started messing with the blow off valve (a spring/ball valve that allows blow off) that sometimes sticks etc in these code situations. I haven't had 'rough running' as of right now...but I just bought some new plugs to install...how'd you determine it was the MAF? thx, jk

Default Codes:

17549 - Load Calculation Cross Check - Implausible value;
16486 - Mass Air Flow Sensor (G70) - Signal too low

Other misfire codes. That combined with the running issues, and lots of searching.

Default Me Too...Going to change out this weekend...supposed

to be a snap. Can you email me directly at
bac2h@charter.net to discuss some of your mods?

I'm getting the MAF from the stealer for 137 dollars. Didn't think that was too bad.
