I tried cleaning the MAF wires according to one post I found and though I got a small amount of residue off, the problem remained. What is going on and is it repairable, or do I just need a new MAF? Please help!!


In my experience, moosing usually occurs around 1500 rpm. But if it is moosing, then do the hose clamp in the middle of the 45 degree bend hose fix or the throttle hang fix. Good luck.

Edit. Moosing sounds like. http://www.sanpedro.com/sounds/foghrn10.wav

To fix Moose problem, put hose clamp in the middle of 45 degree hose (between the IAC valve area and inlet duct (accordian tube). Tighten until the moose (foghorn) sound is gone.

TH fix.
