Jed Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Was coming home from work the other day and it just came to a stand. now when i try to start her, she starts fine and splutters like fuel starvation and dies? Starts fine each time but then splutter, choke n dies again. Its like the bowls filling and then emptying for example. try to put your foot on pedal and its too much and wont start? Any ideas? Fuel pump?etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M13KYF Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 MAF sensor perhaps, it coukd be the first place to start looking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chippychip123 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Could be MAF try unplugging it and if it's that then it will run but just won't rev past about 3000rpm, warning though unplugging it will throw the eml light Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jed Posted June 26, 2012 Author Share Posted June 26, 2012 Cheers Lads! Thats just what the problem was. I'm presuming it's another MAF sensor then? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NISSAN-350Z-3 ... 1306wt_653 is this what i need? (Expected it to be more expensive?) Forum comes up trumps again!!!

Lexx Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Before you panic and replace it, was it damp at all? Or the intake beneath its apperture? If so, then dry it thoroughly, check to see if your filter is soaked (if so dry that too). Then replace and try. If it's still goosed, for a replacement.

M13KYF Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 if it is goosed I'd order it from ZMANALEX. You could also try some MAF cleaner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
