Help... MAF problem, I think...

[TweekedGT]

Hey guys. My cars been acting strange since i got my cams and underdrives put on. I can watch the volt meter fluctuating and then the car will shut down. ABS light comes on, my clock flickers, volts drop way down. I think it may be the MAF but not sure. Any body got any ideas? It doesn't matter what speed the car is going. It can be idleing or doing 80, it does it both times. It does it most when the cars is just starting off though and when it is cold. Does this sound like a MAF problem or am I on the wrong track?

Battery?
I don't think the MAF would throw off your volts...idling problems yes but not the volts.

that's exactly what i thought at first too. i checked the battery and connections and everything seems good there. I talked to my father in law and he said he had a problem with his car shuting down in the middle of driving and the volts fluttering and his was MAF. I know these are pretty sensitive units and mine has been taken off a few times in the last three weeks, once to install my cams and then when I got the car dyno tuned. I'm just kind of shooting in the dark here now. Anybody else seen this problem?

Have you ever had the car properly tuned? I would think with all the mods you have a tune would be mandatory...

I just had the car dyno tuned about three weeks ago. It's been since then that this has started happening. I'm just wondering if we missed a conection somewhere after putting the cams in.
