OM606 MAF Sensor - gen3performance - 02-11-2011
So I'm doing some winter mods to my 99 E300TD and I've got a question.
Is there a way to eliminate the mass air flow sensor on the 606? From what I understand the MAF only controls the EGR of the engine...just wondering if this is correct.
I have had my ECU remapped and also had the EGR function disabled with the remap...can I just remove the MAF totally without problems? Or do I need to install some resistors in its place? Any information on this will be greatly appreciated.

Based on my experiments, the MAF sensor also controls the "ceiling" of fueling at any given moment. It also has something to do with the transmission shifting properly.
I concluded that it doesn't hinder performance and it can be replaced for under $50 all day long so I abandoned my plans to eliminate it.

.
MAF/EGR do not control fuelling, it just follows the fuelling rate.
Allmost all MB´s are pressure controlled.
If there is something wrong in MAF/EGR -> limp mode, when fuelling/revs are very limited.

Where can I buy a MAF in the 50 dollar range?

I just replaced the insert with this one:

Awesome!

I asked the seller and the shipping to the UK was 30 quids
This made it too dear...

Ask him/her to use USPS flat-rate international, it should be much cheaper.

He said this was all he could do
Then I said nope.But I got another MAF from RON, the MAF electronic twaek I posted earlier, its a Pierburgh, look like it has the same properties as the 029, but I found out that if I tilt it slightly, the car is mighty again
I might have been running too rich before?
