Power loss

[jamesjyd]

Dudes, I'm experiencing power loss with my RS200 A/T. Frustrating when you get beat by Civics... I have got the throttle body clean and ECU checked for errors but nothing came up. The mechanic was saying that it might be my VVTi sensor (Bank 1). Have any of you guys had this problem

what about the MAF Sensor?

MAF sensor in your airbox could be the culpprit.

Get it clean using MAF sensor cleaner. You can get step by step instruction in Australia Altezza forum.

who and where can do it?

Bro u can try at TRial Motorsport or Dori-dori auto,...but to be frank it is quite easy...coz i done it with crc cleaner & the result superb!!!!..but need to be xtra carefull on the "capacitors"...the outside one is for the air temp "correct me if iam wrong" and the flow sensor is located inside the pitch......

i heard that CRC 02016 contact cleaners may not be good for long term... http://www.crcindustries.com/auto/content/prod_detail.aspx?PN=02016&S=Y this is the new packaging...here's the old more familiar one...http://www.weclonline.com/product_shot/145x145/75-01-2016.jpg

dunno how true, but get the one specially for MAF Sensors by CRC 05110...http://www.crcindustries.com/auto/content/prod_detail.aspx?PN=05110
