How-To's / M42 mass air flow sensoe delete?

« on: July 22, 2009, 04:51:33 PM »

well are you looking to get rid of the stock VAF (vain air flow meter) and get a actual MAF to increase flow. or get rid of it all together ? and run a MAP and go with a Speed density setup ?

Engine + Driveline / Car problems! runs like crap!

« on: July 21, 2009, 11:35:01 AM »

Ok so i have a 94 e36 318is automatic.
Whats been happening latley is at first it just started running a little funny and at it would stall out if i didnt warm the car up. Then i would drive the car and it would all of a sudden feel like its stuck in 3rd gear and go no were. it would just bog realy bad. Even putting the car into the manual mode and having it in 1st it would still go no were. when this happens i have to turn the car off for about 2 min and then im back up and running. what has also a few times is the check engine light will flash on and off and the car will sound like it has massive cams in it like the timming went off a degree. needless to say i need some advice to see if it sounds more like a engine or tranny problem. Im thinking engine and mabie a cam sensor or crank sensor. i have yet to check the compression tho. keep in mind when the cars not feeling like its going to die it runs awsome. I just need some good advice!

Its real simple to do your going to need to go out and buy two red neon tubes about 10in to 12in long. you can get them at autozone or advanced or any popular auto store. Make sure that you buy red neon not red LED the LED is good if u want a deep red color, but the neon comes out more orange like the typical bmw interior lights. What you need to do is find a wire under the dash that gets power when the ignition is turned on. Once you find that out splice the two possitive wires into that and find a good ground to put the negatives to. now when i was looking for the wire i found it under the driver side honestly the only thing is i dont remember what wire it was because i did it a wile ago. Its a pretty simple task. after wireing just screw in the neon tubes under the dash and wate till it gets dark lol.

Thanx bro!
I got them from autozone, there just red neon strips. it works nice bc the red neon color almost matches all of the amber lighting in bmw's
