Hi All,
Many thanks to all you have helped me previously, very much appreciated I can assure you.
I do have a question though as everytime I start my 4200 04 reg (40,000 miles), it starts fine and revs ok ish, but when put into gear, it bogs down and revs roughly until I give it a bigger bootfull (not till its warm though). Its done this since iv owned it (3 months now).
I have just changed my front two O2 sensors as one was poorly, and runs better now too.
Now am I having a problem or is this a "they all do that sir" thing ? Also is it the cats filling with condensation upon first start as once reved up, it kind of clears up 80%, or is this signs that my MAF sensor could do with replacement, as Im happy to do whatever to get it running nice.
Its had a full service prior to me buying it with all plugs etc changed at Fiorrelli (or however its spelt) so its in good order there.
Once warm or fully hot it runs nice, or nice to me as I don't know any different.
I wouldn't mind changing the MAF anyway to eliminate it, does someone have a good supplier please, iv read through loads of posts with MAF as a primary word but have as of yet not found a definative supplier and was hoping there is a MAF out there which is the same as our ones but through say - Alfa's or Fiat ? or through a supplier specialist, not Maserati if I can help it as I need to get the kids something for christmas !!!
Many thanks
Gary
