Tibout Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Hi there just want your opinions. So landy is a 2004 defender td5. After a full head rebuild new turbo radiator intercooler. She started fine after diesel bleeding when for a drive and seem very low on power the next morning it struggle to start when she did she kind of shakes a lot before idling nice after. So disconnect the MAP sensor first and she went into limp mode no power at all connect it back up and disconnect MAF sensor and she's much better more responsive. I've clean both sensor with brake cleaner but have to leave MAF unplugged to get good performance. I'm going to order a genuine one but is it ok to drive her with it disconnected I've read that some people have just cancel it all together. I have blank the egr and decat pipe and straight through exhaust. Any ideas welcome Thanks Thierry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reb78 Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Yep. Fine to drive with the MAF unplugged. The ECU just uses default values. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tibout Posted July 31, 2016 Author Share Posted July 31, 2016 Thanks for your reply. Heard some people just doesn't run their landy without one at all its that's ok. i would think that the engine won't run to its optimal performance!!! I could be wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
