Hi
I just installed a Cloned ECU and a Montero Maf. A little background first. I was driving on the highway a week ago and decided to do a 3rd gear pull. The car started sputtering and wouldn't idle at all. I disconnected the Maf and voila, limped it to my friends shop. I initially thought that I blew an intercooler pipe but couldn't find any leaks. The mechanic suggested that the mass air flow sensor was to blame because of a crappy Ebay air filter the previous owner had installed. This had happened before. All I did was buy a can of Maf cleaner and the car ran great again, but not this time. Fast forward 3 days ago when I received my Montero Maf and adapter from Adam. I installed it and the Cloned Ecu. Changed the settings for the Maf as per the post on this site. Burned the Rom and nothing. Car is basically doing the same thing. I start it, it runs for a few seconds. Sometimes 10 seconds sometimes 5, pretty random then shuts off. But if I disconnect the Maf, the car runs great(I've tuned the limp home mode). I've attached 2 logs. 1 with the Maf disconnected the other is with it connected. Need some help figuring out whats wrong. Thank you
