how do i check the butter flies on a zetec? and how do i replace them.. i'm guessing that is the problem w/ my car cuz i replaced the MAF and i still have no power over 4000 rpm...
 
Zetecs dont have secondaries. the only zetec to ever have them was the SVT Focus (I think they did). if you have no power over 4K RPMS check and make sure the CAT isnt plugged. theres a how-to for that here.

if it is plugged you can either replace it ($$$$) or you can remove the exhaust and then hollow it out and install an MIL eliminator (not recommended if you have emissions testing)
 
Thats weird though, cuz my car has all the same symptoms as wat is described for the V6 w/ secondaries. for the first time i floor it, the car will just about red line, but after that, it wont go above 4000 RPM.... i'll check the cat then i guess...
