The car ran great with no codes for four days. Now, it will rev then spudder and then stall. I''m thinking that maybe it''s a faulty new/remanufactered MAF. Maybe the ERG has finaly gone. I''ll have to go to get the code read at Autozone again.

I took the MAF sensor back and replaced it with a new one. I guess we''ll see if the remanufactered one was defective.

Yeah, I needed a security torx wrench to remove two screws. I replaced the MAF twice cause I''m still getting the codes. Probelm not solved yet. I''m going to take it to a shop to see if they can get it sorted out. I do have to replace the starter now though. It''s clicking rapidly and won''t connect. In the mean time, I''m going shopping for a new car. I''ll keep my z34 as a project car.

Just thought I''d keep you guys posted. I replaced the precat o2 sensor. The car still stalled out on me. I took it to the dealer to see if they could figure out what was wrong with it. They said that I needed a new maf, but I had replaced it twice so far. I picked up the car and took back the MAF for a third time at autozone. They replaced it no prob. The car is running fine again.
In the end, I had codes for the o2 sensor and codes for the maf sensor. Replaced them both and now my car runs great again.
BTW...
The dealership wanted 350 for a MAF. Plus 70 to install it. I don''t know what is worse, paying 420 for it to be replaced or replacing it 3 times to get one that works from autozone. When I told the mechanic at the dealership that I already replaced the MAF twice, he said that I must have gotten it at autozone. It''s a common problem he says.
Autozone was really great about replacing it without question three times no additional charge though. It was only about 137. I''d go back to them anyday. Service was great.
I can''t say that I''ll ever go back to the dealership though.
