Finally got a chance to start working on the celica again, I did some tests on the MAF sensor the resistance was fine but i fond no voltage when air was passing through it, so I'm thinking a bad sensor. I measured the intake tube it was almost exactly 3 inches, I also removed the drivers side steering knuckle and dropped it off at a shop to finally get the wheel bearing fixed. Another thing I want to check is the spark plug gaps, anybody know what they should be?

Your intake pipe is slightly large. You need a 71 mm pipe and 3 inches is about 76 mm. I've had 2 intake pipes with a difference of .8 mm and I can feel a definite low end power difference between the two. I would think it will still run though. Spark plug gap should be .44". I've never checked voltage on my MAF, so let me do that and find out what kind of reading I get.

there is no specific level, when you blow into the end of the sensor the voltage should jump from 0 to however hard you blow, mine didn't budge

Been a long time so I figured I would leave an update, the bucking problem was related to the ECU, I managed to find the correct ECU and the engine has been doing great since. Money has been tight with trying to pay for school put I've managed to put some tires and a good portion of the much needed steering/suspension parts on it. Still need the following:
Struts/springs Throttle thermostat Lower engine mounts and rear bracket To locate the power steering leak and much more. I'll attempt to get some pictures up tomorrow in the daylight. |

Mine is doing the exact same thing after swap.
What was your conclusion exact, course I'm about to buy a new MAF.?? |
