    asthmatic accleleration been going on for over a month now and most searches point to the following:
    • Throttle body housing - cleaned, seems ok
    • EGR valve - cleaned, seems ok
    • Idle control valve - cleaned, but not sure if it should move 100% freely tho or be pretty rigid as it's fixed to a solenoid stepper motor so didn't want to "whack it with a hammer" to free it up. (idle is a little higher than normal but not way out of line)
    • Coil Pack - seems to be firing ok, but need to swap it with a mint one to be sure. (not sure if you can use a continuity test on your meter to check the pins to the top of the plug connector)
    • AMF - now this is the dumbass bit, I thought it was in the middle of the air intake after the filter box, but the sensor there I've seen marked as the Intake Air Temp sensor and I can't see any way of inserting the Mass flow part I've seen from dealers into this as the pipe seems to be a sealed assembly.
    So, if anyone can point me directly to the Mass Flow meter/sensor that would be much appreciated!
