problem worthy of lols...

[Preen59]

what is aerostart and where do you buy it from
that sounds like somthing i need to do!!!

Get it from ANY auto shop.

Basically, it's ether. Nulon "Start ya bastard!" is the same stuff.

MAF cleaner intermittently worked on my old MAF before I replaced it. Lol, I dunno if this one is dead now but it's kinda lame if it is because they're expensive dammit.

Sorry to go offtrack but

You can buy Aerostart from Supercheap for under $30 a can.

You've got a choice between Nulon Start Ya Bastard, CRC Aerostart and 'Series 500' Starting Fluid (different sized cans aswell).
I beleive it works by igniting under lower pressure/temperature conditions, so its technically causes pre ignition in an engine (makes a very very distinct pinging sound).
You shouldn't need the stuff if you look after your cars, and I beleive its directed more at carby engines as its not exactly the best idea to spray flamable liquids over your MAF, Air filter ect.

You can buy a new MAF from the UK for less than 100AU posted, mines been going for more than a year now.

get a mechanic to use his vaccum gauge and he'll be able to figure out what's the problem.

simple, but very effective diagnostic tool.

Wrong year models - yours is late model, and different. Cheapest I can get is like, GAP pricing.
