Replacing Air Filter and Cleaning MAF Sensor SAAB 9-5 2.3

Yet another attempt to get the lpg system to work on this SAAB 9-5.

Had same issue. It was the maf. Just disconnected it and the stalls and misfires stopped. Obviously not ideal for the engine and fuel system. The maf was new, too.

Suddenly, after only washing the underside of my car, degreasing and all that, my engine just cuts out at 2000ish rpm. Could it be this? A few weeks ago I put a whole new air filter box in, the old one was shattered and the new one came with a 2nd hand filter in it (the guy said it was more or less new). I am wondering if it just took time to suck dirt from the supposedly clean filter into the mass airflow sensor? I should probably add, mine is a 95 BioPower that runs on 95-E85, petrol only.

Is it still running? I just did all the same stuff after a huge drop in gas mileage. TBA

Rakstīšu angliski. Generally, I would advise(thought i guess too late) to not just change things but find the cause first. Few comments: - the engine on start does not sound good at all, check your oil for gasoline(with dipstic - check if smells like gasoline), this can happen if running rich. - Based on the noise of the engine, might be worth checking if the chain has strechted to its limit(look up, there is a way to check with tensioner) - if sparkplugs were bad, the ignition coil(the thing that has "Direct ignition" written on it, is probably done. It is very, very typical of these, they die all the time. Their expected lifespan also is very low. And if changed must be replaces with a OEM or a very high quality one - cheap ones will be just problems. Though, you can try testing one from scrapyard before buying a new one. - As for LPG go first through all the steps and check were is the point that LPG is not flowing through. First probably check before reduction body(reduktors), then continue all the way to injectors. Check if EVERYWHERE there is pressurized gas. The reduction valve also has a fine mesh filter in it that can clog, the injectors might not open(wiring/fuse problem), the valve before or after the reduction body might not work, as well as the valve on the gas tank. I would suggest check the condition of the chain before going further with spending money on it. Chain replacement requires engine removal and is fairly expensive for the price of the car(approx 600 euros, back in the day). So first investigate if it is worth spending more.
