    Gear41's Gen 3 Montero Build

    Good to see your NP back. Did you figure out your issue from last fall. Did it turn out to be the Cam Sensor?

    MAF Sensor voltage issue 2004 Montero Limited

    I would try the 10 minute idle procedure talked about earlier. Let the system relearn, uninterrupted. Then see if it stops hunting. If the problem persists, test the MAF and its connector again. Rule out whether or not the problem is there. Have you found out what that rogue connector goes to...

    MAF Sensor voltage issue 2004 Montero Limited

    1) Regarding cleaning the MAF, be careful to read the label on whatever MAF Cleaner you are using... For some reason not specified on the label our Karmen Vortex style MAFs do not respond well to chemical cleaners. I have no idea why, but it's written there in #10 on the second picture...

    What battery are you guys using?

    Inyo, does a group 34 fit in the stock tray no problem?

    MAF Sensor voltage issue 2004 Montero Limited

    According to FSM 13AC-9 thru 17, here are the things to test when receiving a P0102 Volume Airflow Circuit Low Input code: 1) Check the VAF sensor using a scanner. Test is performed with engine running and warmed up. Frequency should be around 10 Hz at idle, and increase with engine speed. 2)...

    MAF Sensor voltage issue 2004 Montero Limited

    Regarding these three: 1) 13-14 mpg is what i see with mine currently, unfortunately. According to my fuel trims I have an unresolved issue somewhere that is causing the car to run very rich (trims pegged at +25%, no up or down). Some have reported 16 mpg as an average, some have even claimed...

    MAF Sensor voltage issue 2004 Montero Limited

    Good. I'd keep an eye on it, just to make sure that it doesn't randomly drop voltage while driving...maybe a bad ground or loose terminal or worst case, a failing voltage regulator that's in an out (due to an oil leak...common issue). Unfortunately our Gen3's do not come with a voltage meter in...

    94 L300 (Delica)

    Awesome! From the look of the few pictures you shared I assume that there was a ton of work put into this thing...way more than the few pictures give credit for. I like that stealth snorkel coming up behind the driver door. I'm unfamiliar with these vans, but is that normal or something you've...

    MAF Sensor voltage issue 2004 Montero Limited

    I'm not sure either, unless he is backprobing the #4 pin on the connector, but that should read the same as the battery voltage at the positive terminal. If he's only seeing 12.5 volts he's got a bad alternator. That's why I asked what the voltage was at the battery with the car running...

    MAF Sensor voltage issue 2004 Montero Limited

    This table doesn't translate over well format wise, but this is how to test and interpret the values you get from testing the B-48 connector. Parameter.....Test Conditions.....Standard Values Live Data.....Engine On, Warmed Up, Idling.....10 Hz. at idle, increasing with engine speed. B-48 #3...

    MAF Sensor voltage issue 2004 Montero Limited

    Here's a mashup of FSM data I put together on the Volume Air Flow Sensor (the MAF) that explains how it works voltage wise: Volume Airflow Sensor DTC P0101: Volume Airflow Circuit Range/Performance Problem [FSM 13Ac-2 thru 8] DTC P0102: Volume Airflow Circuit Low Input [FSM 13Ac-9 thru 17]...

    This is exactly where I was going with this. I smell an alternator problem.

    What battery are you guys using?

    I'm currently using a Bosch Platinum Series Advanced AGM (Group 24F...the stock size). It came with a 4-year, full replacement warranty. There's definitely plenty more room in the tray for a larger battery though. My dual battery setup is simply carrying a jumper pack, a DBPower 600A. We run a...

    Rear Ball Joint Replacemts

    I recently changed all my rear bushings and UCA ball joints. The UCA ball joints are not too difficult. Three nuts hold it to the upper control arm. The ball joint is tapered so once you break it loose you can whack the knuckle with a hammer until the ball joint pops loose from the knuckle (see...

    Aftermarket control arms for 3rd gen.

    You're not likely to hear anything nice about the auto part store offerings. They don't compare well to the OEM, quality or durability-wise. Mitsu made some pretty beefy arms, and you'll find that replacing a ball joint on one is one of the easiest jobs on the vehicle. I'd recommend rebuilding...

    Auto Technica Garage's Rally raid project!

    I love when these older threads are revived and brought to the attention of newer forum members like me. Thanks Inc.X. Now after reading the whole thing I'm asking the same question as Josh.

    Wheeling video part meh.

    I watched that video today while at work, and spent a little time looking at the others on your ADD YouTube page. Really looking forward to seeing the videos that come from this year's Sierra Carnage. I watched some of those videos from the previous Carnage trips. Looks like a really good time.
