hey
i got a sierra with a vitara 1.6 in it, and i pulled the airflow meter out to start connecting my snorkel and it fell apart. couple questions.
where would i get a new one?
roughly how much should i expect to pay?
and when i put it back in the shed i didnt have it in the car at all and it seemed to run the same as when i had it in there. is this a sign that it was stuffed any way?

Second hand info so take it with a grain of salt but was reading on redline gti.com a guy that was turbo'ing his G16B. when he disconected the airflow meter the engin stilll ran seemingly normally, his thoughts ran along the lines of the computer having a fail safe airflow map programed in based on throttle position sensor inputs. If you removed the throtle position sensor inputs it would just stall i reckon, would be good to see if it could run with airflow inputs but no throttle pos sensor inputs 
good experement when mines running i reckon.
But times two wanting to know how much and where a new airflow sensor could be had. I need one as well. . . . . lotsa $$$ im thinking.

i got a quote for a 2nd hand one from the wreckers for 330 and a refurbished one for 395 plus 284 but u get that back when u give them your old one.

Dan
the mounting threads are tearing out the tube bit. ones come off completely and the others split and about to come off.
i'll try and get some pics.
