AFM

Postby Emperor » Thu Jan 05, 2006 8:58 pm

NOTE: I did a search but didn't find anything

What happens when you take off the AFM? I put a pod on my friends Mirage R today, one of those K&N reverse things, that look like a pod upside down.. Anyway, we forgot to plug the AFM back in, and the "check engine" light came on,
But if you took the AFM right out, what does it do?

Thanks Mr Mainstream, for actually being helpful.
It was my friend who was told by his friend that he should take the AFM off cause it'll run better. :lol:
