Just to add, these thing check for air flow and vacuum so if the air intake system has a leak after the MAF then this is the fault you will see and unplugged the MAF will take the sensor out the system so the ecu will compensate for it, normally by adding more fuel, this could be what you can smell in the car A split in a vacuum pipe will also give this fault on some occasions
-
That’s usually a fault with MAF sensor or the manifold pressure sensor, I’ve had it in the past where I’ve replaced the MAF with an aftermarket one and it’s just been the same, put a genuine one on and it works, also if there’s oil on the manifold pressure sensor it gives the same fault, when you unplug the MAF the ecu will change the fueling to compensate for not seeing the air flow it is expecting, also possibly a wiring fault to the MAF, this sometimes doesn’t put the EML on but will store a fault

That’s similar to me, corned beef, beetroot and lettuce on brown bread 5 days a week ( lol ) I’m going to have to make one for this weeks bait, just for the nostalgia
-
I bloody love a corned beef butty, I used to have one 5 days a week when I was a mechanic, the lads used to take the piss out of me for it, it’s bloody expensive now mind
-
Big dinner today, pot roast beef, with creamy mash, thyme yorky puds, crispy rosemary roast spuds and a bit of veg, gravy from the pot, lovely, going to need a nanna nap after I’ve dropped my old mam’s dinner off
-
Chicken balti tonight, I think I got my spices mixed up because it was bloody hot, I’d better get the bog roll in the fridge
-
I did them panels in my last house before I sold it, they are a really nice finish, I even made the bath panel out of it, they give a high end look for not a lot of money
-
They do all taste the same but are all nice, the best way to change the taste is to use vinegars, I like balsamic or red wine vinegar with this type of thing
-
Spaghetti with a mushroom ragu, it’s basically spaghetti bolognaise, nice though
-
Couple of theses tonight, it’s not bad, I tried the hawkstone lager a few weeks back and that was terrible
-
I’ve done my fair share of tracks in swamps, normally on his 8 tonne, luckily this was the little one and it was in his garden
-
Ask the lad about building control and he said “ who’s building control “ I don’t know if he was joking or not, so left it at that. So everything is down to the level it needs to be and the type one is coming on Monday, quick job on the way home for my mate and that’s me done for the week, don’t know why he can’t put a track on his own digger
-
Little dilemma, second part of the concrete floor out and there’s another one under it, only this one is exactly the height my stone needs to be, now building control will say it needs to come out, if it was mine I would visqueen it and pour the concrete, but that’s the customers decision
-
Toad in the hole again tonight, did the yorkie pud mix with sage and onion powder, it was very nice
-
Getting on well with this, I think we should have it all out for tomorrow and another day to put the sub base in, the lad who owns it has been with us all day and he’s a proper grafter, so what was looking like a week should be done in 3 days
-
Floor job started
-
Just shop bought fishcakes tonight ( posh ones though)
-
I was in darlo last week, went down one street in the middle of the day and every other house had a tranny tipper on the drive, ether tree surgeon, driveway’s or guttering/roofing and the drives that didn’t have a tranny on had a new caravan ( lol )
-
Rest of the trees down and cut up, my little 16” saw worked a treat, even on the big bugger
-
Pork choppy things again tonight, cheap as chips and the missus likes them
-
I think there’s 9 to come down and one of them is a big bugger, I would of thought for 2800 the would be chipping them and taking it away
-
Well, I’m going to start the floor job on Wednesday, mate mentioned he needed some trees down so he could have solar panels installed, £2800 for someone to do it, day rate hfor me
-
Dug out, bit of old rubble in, now it’s the brickies turn, I might go and have a look at that floor removal job
-
Just digging out today, I’ve been asked if I want to take concrete floors out of a house, lad thinks it will take me about 10 days, I could start tomorrow, so I need to have a think about it
-
It’s just full of scummy horrible people now, it used to be a good day out, it will be 15 years since I last went and it was a going down hill then, I don’t know anyone who goes now
