MAF and CAI

[buckshot85]

So when after about 7 months my mass air flow sensor went out. along with 2 coil packs and to plugs. Well the trucks starting to skip again some. I'm pretty sure i burnt up another MAF. Could this help solve my problems with the extra air from the CAI?

What type of filter do you have? is it a soaked type, like a K&N? maybe the residue is building up and wrecking them?

Might need to try a dry element....

Roush Cold Air Intake. it's suppose to be oil free. just rinse with water ever 4 months and let dry.

Hmmm, then I`m not sure the cause.

Is this one you listed much more than the OEM one?

 

[buckshot85]

only about $25 more

Then I`d give it a shot, But your not 100% thats the issue though right?

I've got the same CAI as you.. But I've never had a problem with mine..

Do you clean it regularly? Or at all?

The only thing I can see maybe being a problem

Eliminate Pegging. If you're adding significant amounts of power to your 2004+ F150, like in a blown application, your stock MAF meter just won't be able to keep up. Avoid dangerous "pegging" with this Big Air MAF from SCT.

Ideal for Superchargers. If you're stepping up to a supercharged application, your stock MAF isn't going to be able to handle the added airflow. But the SCT Big Air MAF is the perfect solution - it supports 400 rwhp to 725rwhp with centrifugal blowers, and from 400 rwhp to 825 rwhp with a roots style blower.

Factory Driveability, Reliability. Think it's too good to be true? Well, it's not - in fact, it gets better! The OEM quality calibration of this sensor delivers factory driveability, superior accuracy, and reliability you can count on.

Supports Serious Power. This MAF meter supports 400rwhp - 725rwhp with Centrifugal Blower applications and 400rwhp - 825rwhp with Roots Blower applications, and requires custom tuning for the best results.

I think an Exorcism is in order.

BTW.. What filter do you have on your CAI... K&N?
