86 S/C
With S/C disconnected and blowing in to the air direct up no stream interference to Maf.
From cold to warm these are the readings:
With a John Speak rebuild from my euro installed for testing I am finding the following:
Speak Maf: Car idle: wants to stall idle fluctuates from 0-1,200 have to feather gas for about 30-Seconds.
Cold start: Warm idle
A/F 10.7 13.1
Rpm 760 840
Maf-V 2.70 265
Maf From Pin 3 to 6 its at 315 Ohms Pin 3 to 5 4.1 Ohms
Modified Maf with two adjustments: Car starts right up idles great.
Cold start: Warm idle
A/F 14.7 15.1
Rpm 760 830
Maf-V 2.42 242
Maf From Pin 3 to 6 its at 427 Ohms Pin 3 to 5 4.1 Ohms
I had to adjust this Maf but now it seems lean under Wot I will test this later.
I am sure I can adjust it out.
Mt question is why does the Speak work fine on my 85 Euro but not on my 86 S/C and the Co adjustment is not at factory from the Speak Maf unit 316 Ohms.
I have my Idle screw all the way in and smoke tested and the only leaks are from the idle control valve. I found this leak on every one I tested and it is small.
If the MAF can be adjusted for idle CO of 1% when used with your stock Euro, then that pretty well rules that out as the problem. Have you tried a stock 85/86 LH EPROM with your s/c car (with s/c disconnected )?
No not yet; I can only believe that your Maf is correct although the readings of 315 Ohms was a little high but the Euro runs fine. With your Maf the car has all kinds of idle issues when cold so I am assuming I am adjusting out these issues with the adjustable Maf. I will install my stock chips tomorrow and see what happens, do I need to do both chips or just one?
You probably need to modify the car back towards a stock intake to see which of your mods are upsetting the MAF readings. Obviously no boost is part of that back tracking.
Can you restore the intake to the MAF as per stock ? This can make quite a difference to how the MAF behaves. The car was mapped with that intake, warts and all.....
