Owner - "The box said 10HP" I would guess with that huge pipe, the velocity of the air entering the engine is greatly reduced, which would change the rate at which the hot-wire is cooled. The sensor requires less current to keep it at a constant temp with reduced air velocity. Yet the actual volume of air being sucked in is considerably more, causing the lean condition. This is something I never actually thought of until I saw this vid. Nice work, Ivan!

Turbulence of the airflow is part of the problem here we have seen everything from lean codes to a rolling idle to hesitation to P061b code on ETB vehicles all due to swirling of the air past the maf. Sometimes manufacturers like GM use screens to straighten the airflow before the maf to get the most accurate reading possible for the best control of the fuel trims. Great video Ivan!!

Great info! Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think newer Fords don't compute baro from the MAF sensor, they do it some other way. I've seen the code from the older PCMs and BARO is computed with a complex equation involving MAF airflow. Older fords would give a skewed baro and you would have known right away there is a MAF issue, either dirty or just not right. Baro used to be a very powerful diagnostic tool, now not so much.

This video helped my solve my lean codes on my Ranger. was reading +24% and +17% on LTFT's on bank one and two. Swapped out an aftermarket MAF to the OEM one and put in new O2 sensors, now I have 0% and -4% LTFT's. As soon as I unplugged the aftermarket MAF, it died, then I restarted it with the MAF unplugged and the fuel trims dropped like a rock. OEM worked perfectly. Although, on my scanner, the two MAF had nearly identical volts and g/s of air showing at idle...... Thanks!!!!

Good video, and great detective work! At GM's Intake Product Development Team meetings, there was (I'm retired now) a LOT of discussion around aftermarket 'performance' intake systems/air filters/boxes. The diagnostic calibration engineers (they set the pass/fail thresholds for components & systems) had many examples of non-OEM performance parts failing the diagnostics and setting DTCs. I recall that over oiling the K&N filters contaminated the MAF sensors, setting DTCs. Hundreds and thousands of hours are spent dialing in the pass/fail thresholds. It is correct that placement of intake system components can be a factor. The same engine in a different platform/body style can often need a specific diagnostic calibration as well as other engine management calibrations.

great video Ivan, at the start you asked why the short term fuel trims were not maxed out (0.8%) while the long term fuel trims already were (29.7%) for both banks. Short term fuel trim changes accommodate an immediate condition such as a vacuum line suddenly coming adrift or even when the car is cold and it needs more gas just to warming up; don't look at short term fuel trims until the engine is in closed cycle. If the hose remains disconnected the long term fuel trims will be set to live with this condition. With the long term fuel trims accommodating a long term change the short term fuel trims, having done their job, return to zero. I know you love to do the numbers, looking at the air flow rate g/second value shown in the PIDs you can work out, based on the revs per minute/60 and engine displacement, whether the amount of air that is entering the engine matches the value as calculated by PCM. The disconnect between the values points to air volume sensor error. Is it possible in the computer to simply plot the air consumption of the vehicle based on revs and engine size versus the g/sec as seen by the PCM? As this would highlight the problem immediately.

@michaelovitch6 жыл бұрын
You need a laminar airflow for MAF sensors. The problem here was the ugly elbow just after the air filter. You would install a straight tube with the filter at its extremity and it would work well. Even straight pipes with no filters can be a problem. The pipe's ridge create an airlift and messes up the airflow. A simple vacuum hose sliced on its length and covering the ridge is often enough to make the airflow laminar again.

I had a Ford Explorer Sport, 4 liter engine, 44K mi, I think it was a 2003, that threw those exact two codes. Thought it was the MAF but replacement did nothing. Turned out there was a fairly short length of 3/4" hose (foot or so long) pretty much right on top of the engine (I wish I could tell you what where) but it had a BB-sized hole in it, on the underside where you could not see it. The hose looked just fine, not cracked nor dried out, it didn't look like it was running over anything mechanical that would wear a hole in it, you'd probably not suspect it. Took it off and there was a stupid obvious puncture in the hose. Well, it wasn't "obvious" because you could not see it until the hose was taken off, but with the hose just sitting in your hand, there it was.

I love Ivan's videos. To clarify something here. That is not K&N filter or intake. That is a cheap aftermarket eBay imitation that has been fitted on that truck. The filter is a cheap aftermarket replacement that is not doing the job (well actually it does, it is restricting more air that it should) plus the OEM box was cut to hold the hanging pipe and the pipe has a sticker on it that says AEM that probably someone stick on the pipe to make it look expensive. (AEM has factory brackets that will fit on the vehicle with no modifications. Base on the pimp my ride truck that we all saw with color aluminium foils on hoses, unplug cables, half aftermarket pedals and who knows what else, that is the result of not knowing what are you doing. Not all aftermarket are bad, jut look for the one specifically design and tested for your vehicle, not just something that with some modification may be required will work on your vehicle. Nice job finding out the problem Ivan.

Hey great video and great diag. One thing I noticed right away was the baro sensor was not quite reporting quite correctly. I know on many systems the baro gets its info from the MAF and originally I saw it reporting between 28-29 which is between 2000-1000 ft above sea level (i think it was at 28.9) Well according to a Baro chart I saw for F150s (inhg (kpa), baro hz, altitude) 28 94.6 152.8 2,000 29 97.9 155.8 1,000 30 101.3 158.9 0 (sea level) I believe the baro frequency was in spec but the baro inhg was off a little bit, and in your video after pulling that after market crap off I noticed the fuel trims corrected, but also the Baro shot up to 30.1 you can see that at around (17.06 on your video) which was what is should be at sea level. That is just one more thing to check and look at closely when you think the MAF is out of whack a little, at least that is one thing that has helped me trouble shoot MAF sensors. Well thanks again for the great video I enjoyed watching it. I hate aftermarket add on crap, I just dont get why people want to add stuff like that. Oh well more money for you I guess, lol.

Happy new year Ivan ! In the end , it seems that flashy cold air induction , by whatever name , seems to be one big restriction . Don't know a lot about volumetric efficiency versus fuel map but I would say you proved that the restriction is what caused the unbalance of a proper fuel/air ratio which totally disagreed with the engine management system . The engine and its fuel system is totally stock . It can only run on stock intake volume . This is the equivalent of when guys used to take Holley 750 CFM double pumpers and throw them on stock small blocks and expect HUGE power gains . More air into an engine with a stock cam and stock chamber volume does NOT make for efficiency . In this case , it's the opposite . LESS air was being introduced into the engine than stock specs , due to the non-stock intake restrictive filter . It would not even idle right . The fuel system via the O2 sensor readings were what was compensating for the restriction by opening the idle air control to offset the missing volume . The scan readings showed the fuel trim way off the scale from the programmed fuel map due to insufficient air intake . If the idle air wasn't necessarily over active to maintain and compensate for the restriction , then that would be the manufacturers reason for the huge intake tubes into the throttle body . Looks Badass and makes up for the filter restriction . How could big tubes on a non-turbo engine be expected to flow more air than stock through a stock plenum and lower intake on a stock engine with stock cam ? Bottom line : that aftermarket cold air induction is NOT meant for a stock engine ! It may do well on a turbo charged build but all it's doing is lining the pockets of the store owner from where it was purchased . Ivan just proved that . Don't fall for it . I'm sure ford engineered the intake induction right to achieve correct volumetric efficiency or an F150 wouldn't get out of its own way . Nice job Ivan ! Your relentless efforts to find the faults and install the fix pays off yet again ! If it weren't for guys like you and the shop owner , no one would put in the time needed . The video was only 18 minutes long , that's less than an hours labor charge . Ivan just saved huge $$ dollars on dynometer sessions and guesstimates . This is why Ivan gets the job , get 'er done and save $$.

I've been running a K&N filter system on my F-150 for nearly 15 years, self installed, without issue. 5.4L has 200,000 miles on it, and anytime I've gotten these codes it has been a vacuum leak. Once the PCV octopus was basically falling apart, replaced it with no issues. My K&N has a straight run past both sensors before it curves into the throttle body. I have never cleaned the MAF routinely. but i have cleaned and oiled my K&N filter regularly. I also paid north of $300 for this cold air system so I didn't go cheap on it. Obviously, it was well designed and the truck had no issues with it (still does not!)

Rotate the sensor into the airstream, and you should be able to get the truck back on the road, should the customer decide to keep the aftermarket intake. :]

How long has that cold air intake been on the truck b/c that is an AEM kit but appears to be a Spectre or another manufacturers air filter b/c it is blue & AEM are red and it looks fairly new. The reason I ask is b/c if it is a dry filter & someone oils it then it will do that and actually chokes the filter. Did anyone try connecting the tube and just removing the air filter? What did the owner do to fix it...maybe Keith knows. Just curious b/c it's bugging the crap out of me b/c normally AEM intakes don't lower the MAF reading like that it actually goes up slightly. I noticed when you started it and the rpm stabilized the MAF was showing 5.31 g/s at 672 rpm and then dropped to 3.88 at 652 rpm...wonder what throttle angle was at.

Interesting that the air flow through the after market tube (which is nice and straight) would cause such a problem. One think about those K&N filter that most people don't know (Because they don't read the directions) is that they actually require servicing much more often than a paper filter. They do work well when properly cleaned and re-oiled when necessary.

no they do not... they need cleaning when they get reaaalllyy dirty, but that wont happen for well over 2-3 years in the dirtiest of places. www.knfilters.com/cleaning-pics.htm that's one of the major selling points.buy it, and you dont have to buy another one ever again! just clean it after a few years.

The problem isn't so much the filter, but the location of the MAF and the way the airflow passes over the hot wire. Stock system are engineered very specifically and the fuel maps in the PCM are programmed accordingly. In this case changing the geometry and relocating the MAF skewed the airflow readings quite a bit!

Nice hot air box intake

I have even seen on a turn where the engine would run rich because the fuel pressure regulator got its vacuum from the intake tube and with the k&n would so well it wouldn't create a vacuum
@PineHollowAutoDiagnostics7 жыл бұрын
Interesting...usually there is negligible vacuum in the intake tube before the throttle plate...unless you airfilter looks like a mouse nest lol
@TopZ927 жыл бұрын
Yes the factory system had a small type canister type champer on it to store vacuum for the fuel pressure if I remember correctly it was something like a 03 tundra with a 4.7 really weird

So, help me understand the issue here, Ivan. If the CAI was "choking" off the intake and the MAF was measuring correctly, shouldn't the fuel trims be negative? If there's not enough air going in to keep the A/F ratio at 14.7:1, then the computer should be taking fuel away, not adding fuel -- as we see here. Please explain. Thanks.

Not quite. The aftermarket CAI was "disturbing" the original air flow stream as the engineers designed it. Therefore the MAF was not reading the air flow correctly (too little), and the computer had to add fuel to compensate for this error :)

Ahh... makes sense. Thanks Ivan. I'm an electrical engineer with 30+ years experience and yet you have taught me a lot. I really appreciate your channel!!
