Code 36, Help!!
Replaced o2 senser, intake manifold gaskets, fuel filter, maf and both relays, which eliminated a code 34 and engine runs much better, but am now getting a code 36. Mechanic is having trouble correcting this code 36. Any advice or suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks dmac

Re: Code 36, on 1986 Help!! (dmac)
CODE 36 IS BURN OFF RELAY FOR MAF OR MAF ITSELF.MINE GAVE CODE 36 AND REPLACED RELAY.CODE GONE BUT CAME BACK IN A COUPLE WEEKS.I PULLED ECM FUSE AND ERASED CODE.SINCE THEN CODE 36 HAS NOT COME BACK.I THINK IT HAS TO DO WITH A PLUG OR CONNECTOR OCCASSIONALY LOSING CONTACT.ALSO WHAT I DO IS WHEN I GO TO START CAR THEN I TURN IGN TO ON AND LET ALL GAUGES RETURN TO ZERO BEFORE I START ENGINE.

Thanks for the tip. The mechanic got it cleared, he said the 2 relays for the MAF sensor were reversed???? Not sure on that one, but I runs a heck of lot better.
