Just changed my MAF....
I just remover the POS Granatelli Mass Airflow, and replaced it with my stock one. Do I have to do a relearn or should I just drive it, and let it learn ??? Thanks for any help... :cheers:

My car didn't feel so hot either, I'll go out tonight or Saturday when I go to Kirban's for a tour. I'll let you know how it feel, thanks El.

Bill...
I think going back to the stock MAF, (hope you took the screen out too), will really wake your car up, as it did mine 3 years ago...
Another tip since you have just done this....
I'd remove the negative cable from the battery for 5-10 mins to clear out all the learned fuel trims & cells...
This way you're starting fresh.. Your PCM & car will love you for it! :yesnod:

Re: Just changed my MAF.... (billiardcue)
Thanks guys, I did a relearn and it might just be in my head but the car felt stronger and the mpg seems better. I think the screen is to straighten out the air flow. I'm told that if you have an after market intake some say it will help, others have complained of a stall/ stumble or an uneven idle.

Removing the screen on a stock car will make it run lean. If you do switch your OE MAF that has a screen to a non screen OE or aftermarket unit, (excluding the POS Granatelli MAF) you will need to retune the car.
