I am wanting to replace my MAF Sensor and wondered if the ebay one here if fine for replacement.

Mass Air Flow Sensor MAF for Subaru Impreza Forester 2 0L 2 5L 22680AA310 | eBay

I have tried to clean mine with CRC cleaner but it still get P0171 and P0174 from time to time. Actually...when i removed the unit the o-ring was not in the best of shape. So if someone knows where I can get that size of o-ring that would help too.

Thanks in advance!
Mike

 

Mike, I ordered one of these - should arrive this week. I'll let you know if it works ( 2000 XK8 )

 

Thanks! I would appreciate that.

 

Mike,

I'm in Bentonville, AR and I have a MAF from my 98 XJ8 non-turbo. I replaced it doing diagnosis and it was not faulty. You're welcome to it if it will work on your car. Non-turbo should be the same.

PM me if you want it.

According to a supplier, all of the following cars have the same mass air sensor:

The MAF I have on my 2002 XK8 was salvaged off a Subaru and works fine; it has the same Denso part number as the one it replaced.


Happy Swapping!

 

Installed my ebay unit today - so far, seems to work perfectly.

 

This is a great tip, thankyou!

 

Thanks for all the feedback. I also thank jaguarbill for the offer! Doing major work on my house right now and just no able to get down there but thank you again. I will just order the one off ebay and give that a shot.

Thanks again... just gotta love this forum!!!

 

For what it's worth, I found a replacement o-ring at my local ACE Hardware in Plumbing. Typical Sunday, cleaned the MAFS and the o-ring was split. Hence the trip to ACE.

If ever I get the "death rattle", I'm hoping that Briggs & Stratton use the same secondary chain tensioners.......

The computer uses the top 02 sensors,coolant temperature sensor,knock sensors and maf for a safe air to fuel ratio and timing table purpose combined.


The following are what Ive always done.

1.Add a large bottle of techtron fuel injector cleaner to just a 1/2 tank of gas
run it to 1/4 tank.
2.Replace the fuel filter.And refill with 93 octane to a half tank,*(why do we ignore the fact, these engines require premium unleaded,using less than that, will cause the knock sensors to retard your timing and make you xk8 a slouch).
3.Replace the front most top Oxygen sensors.
4.Replace the air filter.
5.Replace the MAF and O -RING.
6.Throw in a set of fresh ,properly gaped spark plugs.
7.Change the oil and filter as it has the fuel injector cleaner in the oil.
8.Replace the coolant temperature sensor.
9.Do a hard reset to erase the computer formal knowledge and have it adapt to the new repairs/relearn.

You will be amazed of your results,I typically, do not share this information
with too many people.
