    Sorry, I just had a memory jolt. It didn't build vacuum, it would pressurise - but it still killed the engine. I remember now that when the engine died and I cracked the gas cap open, a huge surge of fuel vapour would erupt at me! Lucky I'm a non smoker lol

    Don't feel bad, I seen many people kicking themselves when they find out the real problem was something overlooked.

    Geezer, was your charcoal canister not working? You probably caused about 6 months of global warming with that vapor loss huh, lol

    Not my car Brad! My eediot bro abused that poor thing. I mean, he beat on it with a dead water pump, never changed the oil, never cleaned it - nada. It finally was put out of it's misery when he attempted to climb a 5 storey high tension power pole with it one night. The battery landed on the footpath 20 metres down the road...

    Anyhoo, someone got insight into mightymax's fuelling issue yet?

    With respects, according to Your posted info, the M.A.F. is a 'reman' unit.
    -reman is NOT new- !
    & You have changed the ECU because the original looked " like it was submerged in salt water"...
    & Still have code 13 ?

    Thx, not trying to be an azz, just trying to help... web diag sucks ...
