Review on πŸš€ Enhanced Hitachi MAF0047 Mass Air Flow Sensor for Improved Performance by Joseph Mannasseh

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Do you need a new air mass meter?

I decided to order this Hitachi MAF0047 to replace my 2005 Buick LeSabre because the one it replaced was also the same brand. I'm so glad I did and would recommend this particular sensor to anyone who needs it. While I wasn't sure if I needed to replace the mass air flow sensor or some other part, it was obvious my problem was fuel delivery. Did a little research on the internet. Most who described the symptoms I was having (engine revs but stalled immediately, strong smell of gasoline, black smoke from exhaust, having to run at very high speeds to avoid stalling, etc.) ended up with a replacement mass airflow sensor . Before ordering, I tried to clean the old sensor from car parts with a special cleaning spray - it did not help. Tried adding a petrol additive if there was water in the tank - didn't help either. A decision was made not to perform diagnostic tests as the results are not always conclusive to determine the exact cause. In the end I decided not to stop there and just order a new mass air flow sensor. Installed a month ago and has been running great ever since. The Revain supplier I order this from was excellent with fast shipping and no problems.

Pros
  • Pretty impressive
Cons
  • Damaged
