I was thinking either one of 2 possibilities: 1) the meth injector was before the maf, and that was causing the issue or 2) you are on the throttle, meth is spraying, and get of it, the meth probably spray's a little bit after that if it's boost referenced.. and maybe it was backing up in the intake after the throttle blade closes and messing with the maf, getting it wet or something.

If the injection is far enough away, then it's probably not hte issue, but somethign I'd at least look at, if the problem is after you get to 1/2 throttle and up, then it makes me think that the problem is boost related somehow.

the only thing that makes sense to me is that their is either a vacuum leak from the tb swap OR there is an electrical problem from the audio/wiring work i had done. either way, i can't find it. Oh well, looks like i'll leave it up to whoever is installing my new engine to find it.

Anyone wanna do my engine install since Dez is so backed up? I found a reputable shop in Warwick, RI that might be doing it but i'm not allowed to say their name cause I don't think they are a sponsor any more. But they make a nice procharger bracket i hear.

if you get hassled for a sticker let me know- I work at a shop in Manchester. But you shouldn't right now if the CEL is on, you still pass.

anyone know how to turn off that light? it came on with the escalade cluster swap

well you cannot be failed for a airbag light, real or not. As for turning it off- you got me on that one. Maybe take the cluster out and pull that bulb?

Sounds to me like you might need a new MA or when you had wiring done they took it for a hammer and either blew off something or screweed something up.

The problem really has to be fixed before the new motor because you don't want to damage the new motor because of it.A bad MA could gas wash a new motor quickly.

The last car that came in with electrical problems was at the shop for 6 months due to a ton of bad wiring/sensors.It got pretty expensive with all the time we put into it.

I figured the MAF was bad too so i swapped it out with the one out of my buddy's Avalanche, same thing happened. I'm running it in SD right now and it's never run better. BUT, I really do want to figure out what is going on.

I'd get that sensor fixed ans see what's going on.. might be able to tell you where to look, or at least where not to.
