So I have a problem. I have been troubleshooting a start idle stall issue. Today I decided to block off my air intake with duct tape while my MAF was connected and she starts up and idles perfectly. Possible vacuum leak??? She must be getting air from somewhere but can't locate it. But when I connect the cold air intake back up she starts then immediately dies and wont run unless I hold the gas peddle down. Can the MAF have incorrect settings so when its metering the air its throwing it out of loop. I'll post a picture. I just replaced the maf because it was doing the same thing before and thinking maybe the maf went bad was the issue. So replacing it isn't the fix. I'm now stuck to thinking its the IAC causing the headache.
