Default Car won't run without maf

I have a 90/90 setup with the 85mm truck maf. When I unplug the maf the car will start but will not run. Am I doing something wrong? Do I just keep turning it over untill it learns enough to stay running?

Try reducing the first three columns of your VE table. It sounds like the car is running rich without the MAF and causing too much fuel. Also, make sure with the MAF plugged in that your IAC counts are where they need to be. (30-60)

Where's your IAT sensor? If it's in the MAF sensor unplugging it is contributing to your problem. Plug the MAF sensor back in and try setting the MAF Fail Frequency to 0.

the truck sensor has it in the maf i think, just set the fail frequency to 0, that is if you are using the IAT sensor in theTB, we need to know what kind of car this is for

then the maf doesnt use the IAT sensor. im sure you have some things that are out of wack. try to reset the fuel trims before you start it up
