air flow meter problems

[ae8620v]

wondering if there is any other option of air flow meter for a 4age 20v silvertop,
is there anything else i can put on it that will work, every afm i get is fucked...

Aftermarket ecu and trumpets
AFM is a thing of the past

[ae8620v]

thats what i had and that was fucking problems aswell

[Nicko]

+1 for MAP Sensor...

[Jacobxxx]

What set up were you running and what are you running now?

[Skylar]

The MAP sensor is not to blame, it's the tuner.

[ae8620v]

i was running adaptronic e420c with trumpets but the limmiter kept comming in at 7000rpm and couldnt be changed and then it blew something within the unit so i decided to go back to standard, i got all the fuel issues sorted but the afm is being an anus.

every afm i get is fucked...

the guy who wired it up wired in a map sensor by mistake and the car ran like a demon but it wouldnt idle coz of no iac valve, am i able to run map sensor??? what needs to be done???

[Nicko]

The MAP sensor is not to blame, it's the tuner.

yeas the tuner was a weiner and had no idea but it wasnt his fault it wouldnt idle it was the fact of no iac valve because its a part of the dog shit afm.

[Skylar]

Wah? You don't NEED an iacv. You can do without one but your cold idle will be ~800rpm cold and will come up to ~1300 warm. I probably won't use the pwm idle valve on my sr when I wire an ecu in because i doubt it'll really need it. It'll be nicer with one but it's not a huge deal idling at 1200. Aside from that, not that I have any experience with 20v motors but you need to source vacuum from all 4 tb's and run that into a vacuum canister then connect the MAP sensor to that. It'll help it idle better. Or tune in 4d.

Send the adaptronic back and get it repaired.

[ae8620v]

does that mean i will have to run a black top computer because the silver top one wont idle with the map sensor connected.

[ae8620v]

stupid f*$^ing 20v about to set fire to it

[Skylar]

Ohhhhhh. I thought you were running adaptronic on afm somehow.

Yeah, switch to blacktop loom and ecu for MAP or put the adaptronic back in and run map.

[ae8620v]

does anybody know if the ecu plugs on the silvertop and blacktop are the same???

[lanky101]

hey man, if you can get any/all part numbers off the AFM, i got some contacts @ bosch and can see if they can get one and price....

[Nicko]

FFS we finally talked him into throwing the AFM into the garbage where it belongs and you come along and tll him you can get him an AFM !!!

Fail..

[ae8620v]

yeah amen to that im gonna put a blacktop ecu up him and map sensor the shit out of it

[lanky101]

didnt say i could get him one nicko, just that if he want to got the hard yards and deal with an AFM, i MAY be able to help a brother out. dont get me wrong, AFM's are SHIT! but each to their own ya know. im running a B/T 20v, i know the joys of map sensors, so much better.
my bad for offering:F:

Camry afms work too on the silvertop... You can also run it on a B/top ecu + loom
