scatt Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 I would imagine that it will feel slugish/hesitant. I dont know if disco's will run with it unpluged?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sargejnr Posted September 14, 2010 Author Share Posted September 14, 2010 tried running it with the maf unplugged, not an ounce of difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piper109 Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Not sure about LR specifics but on many vehicles, when you unplug a MAF the computer goes open loop and it uses a default value which will work well enough to get you home etc. but you will be down on performance. Its a bit like having a clock thats stopped...its exactly right twice a day. Sometimes cleaning them with carb or throttle body cleaner will bring them back to life.

Range Rover Blues Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 You can get proper MAF cleaner but I can't remember who makes it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
