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

89 Coupe Blk on Blk



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....)

Title: Saturn Sing-along
Date: Fri, 25 Sep 2009 00:28:45 +0000
Author: typehype

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
