As you may recall I made a 52.5 hour run from Carlisle, PA to Rancho Cordova, CA a few weekends ago. The car was brilliant and the trip was fantastic. Upon returning I was getting recurring CEL's for bank 1 intake cam sensor, no big deal I'll swap it out when I do the valve cover gaskets. The job was easy and straightforward no drama...
Steven Ferrario dropped his car off for some service and mod work and he asked me to drive his car.. well, it felt like it had 100hp more than mine. Out came the diag equipment and sure enough the MAF's were out of whack... I also noticed after I got back that my temps would not reach over 1/4. It wasn't a big deal on the way back cross country since average temps were in the 30's and 40's.
Today I finished my thermostat and MAF's - woot! NOW it is a beast.. I thought it was fast before.. oh boy I am in deep trouble now!
Readers digest version
Thermostat + 2 MAF's + 1 cam sensor = smooth sailing
