Hi
The service light is constantly lit up on my friends 89. It gives code 36 &
he tells me that his car runs fine but with a power loss. Sometimes on
mine, I loose my acceleration completely for about 6-8 seconds and then the
service light comes on for about 8 seconds and leaves code 36. Apparently
from what I heard, my problem will get worst. I`m wondering what are
symptoms that some of you`s have experienced with a bad maf.
Thanks
Dan

P.S.
Not too long ago I posted up an add about my friends ZR1 hesitating at low
RPM`s. It turned out that 2 out of 4 spark coils were faulty.

The answer is in your Factory Service Manual under "Drievability &
Emissions". Follow the basic troubleshooting steps.
Oh I forgot, you are too cheap to have a manual...you want to have
someone here fix your car over the internet. Stop living vicariously
thru your friend`s ZR-1. Buy a manual you cheapskate.
Shut-up Dan

I had plugged cats. Make sure your car can exhale - if it can`t, it
shows up as MAF, O2 sensor, all kinds of stuff (which may also have
problems, but isn`t the root cause of the code....)

Here’s the story / of Suzy’s Saturn / which was on the market ready to be sold
All the problems it was having / annoyed it’s owner / most of all, that it was old
It’s a story / of a girl named Angela / who was forced to live in her parents’ home
They were three people / living all together / yet they were all alone
Till the one day when Angie met Miss Suzy / Then she knew the Saturn perfectly met her needs
That she wanted to park that car in her driveway / About that time, the Saturn began to overheat More on: http://theninthhouse.wordpress.com/2009/09/25/saturn-sing-along/
