I unplug the maf and car runs a lot better. Plug the maf back in and the car almost dies and runs like crap.

Check for (a) vacuum leak(s).

If it's a 24v swapped car, the usual culprit for me is the hose coming out of the intake elbow boot. It dry rots and breaks, making the car run like shit and not idle, but unplugging the MAF smooths it out.

^you read my mind. The hose on the underside of the 24v intake manifold can be a real mofo.

What did you guys do to this guy? Lol


Well hopefully this bit of nonsense can this thread back on track?

What car related YouTube channels do you watch?

The ones I sub to that actually put out regular (mostly) content:


Adam LZ, Tommyfyeah, Cleetus McFarland, Home Built by Jeff, Team Boosted, Street Bandito, Jay Leno's Garage, boqer123.


A couple non-car notable mentions that you guys might enjoy:
Alec Steele, Torbjorn Ahman, Clickspring.

He was "trina" sell his merch here and got roasted (assumption...a safe one).

Also not enough hugs as a child.

I'll take a look into that. I believe I had done that and even cleaned the ICV. I'll check again when I get home.

he's Trina be Trina.

he kinda looks like he's shanked a few dudes the last time he was in the pen.

fiberglass m3 panels on a regular e30 ftw!!!!!!!

Forgive me if this is too on topic, but is that guy from the R3V Facebook who bought the "new" E30 M3 shell on here? Build quality is ridiculously high, but so is the money spent on tools/equipment. Do you guys think that build quality is highly dependent on the tools/equipment available?

no, to a reasonable level, I think you can get good results with not very expensive tools. it think it just takes longer and makes the job more difficult.

the guy that bought the shell is a member here. he doesn't post a lot anymore, but he is still active.

TexJ - My issue was similar to that. It would start and then stall or hesitate regardless of throttle position. If you have someone with a spare/good MAF it'd be worth a try. Definitely check for vacuum leaks but if it runs better with the MAF unplugged...

On another note. That dudes eyebrow tattoo is sick. He's so edgy and cool...

Quick question, I was looking at replacement MAFs and they run the scale on price. Which would be a good one to get. Right now I have a Bremi 30121k, when I look that part# up I cant find another like it.

Usually I hate the person who says to only use OEM, but he/she is right about sensors on a BMW. I would get the VDO one since it's probably the supplier for BMW.

flyboyx: Yeah, good to know. Seeing a build like that makes me feel like everything that isn't expensive is garbage.

none of you fuckwads have told a decent story in a while so here goes:

for the last couple years, my wife has held the position of marketing director for a group of 12 rehab/assisted living homes here in the Houston area. now and then I would pass through the halls of one of them or another to drop off lunch and steal a kiss or two. in all honesty, I simply can't help but dread the thought of walking in the door. the reason why is that I am more than occasionally greeted by some decrepit old man flashing me his wrinkly pair, or just as often a 90+ year old woman lifting up her hospital gown to show me a fuzzy worn out cooter. for whatever reason, the women in particular do NOT have their legs arranged in a feminine position! to be very clear, we aren't talking the accidental "oops, my gown slipped" kind of thing. literally, they sit around in their wheel chairs just waiting for an unsuspecting victim to walk by. I would say my chances of espying "senior citizen naughty bits" are probably pretty close to 30%. seriously folks! put on some damn underwear!!

the other day, I did my walk though and there was this skinny little old lady sitting in her wheeler right in the middle of the hall. she had her left ankle perched behind the back of her head! COME THE FUCK ON, MAN!!!!!!! how the hell is this even possible at that age? why couldn't I have met a chick like that when we were both in our 20's? as I dodged around her (with a forceful effort not to look down), she says to me: "wanna lick mah pússy?" I don't even want to talk about the smell! lets just say it wasn't the freshest fish in the sea.

now...if I was Quagmire, I suppose I would say: "dear diary!!! Giggi-tty!!!!!! proceeded by wheeling her into the nearest bathroom. since I am not, I guess my face probably went crimson red with embarrassment and I got the fuck out of there like a scared little girl running from a park flasher. Jesus Christ!!!!!

my wife says this sort of thing is apparently common in places such as this. a good deal is probably attributed to dementia. on one hand, I kind of respect the virility of it all. I'm sure it gets pretty boring for them. might as well pass the time with a little mischief. on the other hand, it really is something you can never unsee.......ghaaaaaaaaa!

Tried to see over priced shit on here. Would do wraps on e30’s too. Also got banned on r3v facebook cause he was an idiot so therefore he hates r3v.
