  1. G'Day Guys, first of all, "Terry in Oz" is my new username, I was previously registered as "Terry in Australia", but for some reason I couldn't log on today, and I need some help ASAP, so I re-registered. I haven't been active here for a year or so because my first Liberty (Legacy) has been so reliable, so I apologise for my absence, in advance. Anyhoo, since I bought the old green 1995 Liberty (Legacy) FWD, I've also bought a 1994 Liberty with twin turbo Legacy engine and running gear, which I love, but my son loves it more, so he owns it now, and I just bought a minty "one owner" 1995 AWD Liberty (EJ22, Auto transmission) that I'm doing a little work on before I put it back on the road next week. It was a regularly serviced car, (timing belts changed 30,000 miles ago) so apart from replacing most of the fluids (oil and filter, coolant and thermostat, brake fluid) I've replaced all 4 brake rotors and pads, as the old ones were getting a little thin. The only other problem (apart from the fuel gauge not working) has been an erratic idle, whether it's hot or cold. The idle speed will jump up to 1500 RPM or so, so I thought that perhaps the MAF sensor needed a clean? I've done this before on my green Liberty and the twin turbo-beast, I had a can of MAF cleaner in my toolbox, so I gave it a good clean and reassembled it, and hit the starter. The car fired right up, the tach needle rose to around 1500 RPM, then dropped down to around 1000 RPM, then conked out. I tried again, and again and again, and still it wouldn't keep running after the initial fire-up. Assuming that the MAF sensor had gone to God, I bought a shiny new(ish) reconditioned one, ($295.00, ouch!) installed it, hit the key, and......... no difference! Damn! I removed the cable plug from the MAF and it fired right up and idled at 1000 RPM, and I was able to move the car out of the carport so my wife could move her car out, but as soon as I re-connected the plug, the engine immediately stopped. I don't have a code reader, nor do I know how to use one anyway, so I'm wondering if anyone here can help? Please? It really annoys me that apart from the erratic idle issue before I removed and re-fitted the MAF, it was running perfectly, and now it's pretty much a "non-runner". Thanks in advance guys, Cheers, Terry.
