1986 Buick Somerset Repair Question
Code 34
1986 Buick Somerset 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 52000 miles
how can you test the sensor when you get a code 34 ?
Answer
That's a Mass Air Flow sensor code. How is the car running?
Did you try clearing the code to see if ti comes back?
yes reset code
runs ruff
step on gas---while moving--almost dies like running out of gas
It's probably a bad sensor but check all the intake snorkels and any attaching hoses or pipes before assuming that.
there are two on the air intake
a small one with two wires and the one with three-i think this is the air mass sensor
I was referring to making sure there are no air leaks between the sensor and the engine.
replaced mass air senson senson---same problem
also get a code 43---dont know what that is
That means the problem could be elsewhere in the MAF circuit. It can be any of the related wiring or the PCM.
A clogged exhaust will also give a MAF code
also the oil light is on but the oil pressure is ok
