No worries Mike , I've been work in on it awile now......thanx for the well wishes and hope you had a happy weekend as well

I'll start again monday

Ok case relearn was done by the dealer
And it took away the check engine light
And the secondary air pump ..... however it still hiccups


Will be looking into your stuff Mike

If it was Andrew who told you the secondary air codes will go away after a few drive cycles, you can be sure it's true.
STFT and LTFT are the short term fuel trim and long term fuel trim numbers.
They can give insight as to what's going awry.
A CASE relearn certainly couldn't hurt.

Andrew never ...

Have you ever tested for excessive backpressure?
Either use an exhaust backpressure gauge or a vacuum gauge.
Hooking up a vacuum gauge, hold the rpms at 2000-2500 for 20-30 seconds and observe the vacuum reading.
It should remain steady.
If it creeps downward, your backpressure is excessive and is ...

cables again tomorrow.......ill load test the battery again with the car unhooked as
well just to see what we see......thanx ...

If that's the 2004 GP, then it's a different MAF sensor.
If the symptoms are worse with the GP MAF, I wouldn't be surprised.

that makes since,can look similar but not same internal

You tried 3 brand new MAF sensors and they all did this same thing of cutting out at the same RPMs?
If ...

I did PM him.
