    As I said it allows the ECU to reset back to OE values,
    and not maintain any new values due to dirty maf etc.
    seems to do the trick

    Definitely yes if the MAF was dirty and won't hurt to 'wake' the ECU up and send it back to Kindy even if the MAF was clean

    Well cleaned my MAF this arvo. I remembered that the screws on the MAF are weird they're a torx but have a lump in the middle making using a torx bit impossible
    So pulled everything around it apart and got it like this

    Sprayed the hell outta it over a nice pink blouse, and was surprised how little shit came from it.

    Yeah, mate,
    The screws are 'Security Torx' a tamper resistant version of the standard Torx.
    Problem is the bits are freely available everywhere IE Jaycar, Ebay, etc etc

    What did the Tojo owner say when you gave him his blouse back?

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.
