Mass Airflow Sensor
I have a 1988 Corvette with 110K miles on it. Service Engine Soon keeps coming up on the dash screen. The car drives like it needs a new mass airflow sensor and my mechanic tells me the diagnostic test shows that it needs a new mass airflow sensor. The part has been replaced four times in the past two years. Another issue is that the Low Engine Coolant light keeps coming up on the dash screen, but the engine coolant is full. Could the two problems be related? My mechanic can't seem to find the problem. What could be causing the mass airflow sensor to burn out?

FYI, the MAF also has a burnoff relay that should be replaced when replacing the MAF. I wouldn't think a coolant light would be related. As said, post in C4 general though. The ZR-1 doesn't have a MAF.

Is your Vette throwing a Code 33?
Your low coolant light might be a result of air trapped in your cooling system under the thermostat. You can Burp the system to get it out. Let us know if you need instructions.
