Hi there MAF replaced best thing every changed to make a difference to the old girl!:)
Yay! A replaced MAF (original)... amazing how much better it drives... no coughing or spluttering either and seems more zippy (as 'zippy' as a landrover can be lol)... so next week will be the air filter.... fingers crossed this all improves the fuel efficiency (if such a word exists with V8's lol).... it's been short of thirsty to put it politely!
So thanks for your help & advice...
Given that I now know where the MAF is & saw how to take it off.... I have a question:
Should cleaning the MAF w/ the CRC cleaner be part of a regular maintenance schedule? If so, how often do you think it should be cleaned/checked?
(note - no river crossings here but occasional dusty roads)...
Thanks,
Lp
As its new I wouldnt touch it until you get that old familiar feeling(lack of Zip)
as for the air filter--
not many brands fit properly,,
anyone recommend a brand that fits and part number?
Thanks Pedro,
As for air filters... was going to pick one up from my mechanic. He recommended either Coopers or one called Mahls or something similar to that??
Not sure if that helps... i'll find out when I get one next week :-D
Cheers,
Lp
