Two pictures at the bottom of this page: PRI - SPITFIRE & GT6 MAGAZINE Article page 65 Vol 2 Issue 1

Started pulling apart the motor and found the Pro-M 80mm MAF like this. the top cover piece was just kind of sitting on there. Are those shavings supposed to be there? Or do you think the MAF somehow got damaged?

What are you looking to hear?

It's broke, get a new one....

Or, be cheap.... install it and see what happens.... good luck with that.....

I am no MAF expert.

1) Is it definitely broken or is that what the inside of the unit actually looks like new, I have nothing to compare this to.

2) If it is broken, what might have happened to cause that and how can I prevent it from happening to the new one.

I might be wrong, but isn't that the purpose of this tech forum? To learn from other people's experiences.
