so i hav e had a problem with my car misfireing after 10 minutes of driving, and i have been looking for the problem. i read on this site, something about a MAF, and how it needs cleaning, and or to run without it. i unplugged it ,andwas going to clean it but ran the car without to see whats up, ran a little ~~~~~~, at first, then okay, been three days and no misfires, but, i do smell something, dont know what. when i plugged the MAF in it idled like ~~~~e after a 10 minute drive, so what could be the possible downtime of driving without a MAF for sometime? i think ricers do it with the cold air stuff, but what about our car?
oh on an unrelated note, my brother drives an 86 fiero gt and i wsa going to buyit off of him, but after he saw it cleaned and waxed, and taken care of he wanted it back. now though hes noticing, i noticed to actually, the car lose power after 45 minutes of highway drive or fast driving in town the car backfires with spraks, and even threw a flame. looses power then sometimes wont start agian for about 10 minutes. anyone know what the problem might be? having it checked tommorow but before that what might be a good place to look replaced
