I unhooked my mass airflow and breather in order to remove some crap that was under (big mistake). Now I reinstalled the breather and plugged that darn thing in the car idles bouncing and there is no power. Is there a reset somewhere or something?

Thanks!

It is a 90 convertible. I don't know if that makes a difference.

What do you remove?

All I did was remove the airfilter box and disconnect the plug on the mass air flow. Then I put it right back together.

Check you didn't knock the AFM loose on the intake pipe. A post-AFM air leak will cause idle problems.

Just got back inside and all seems to be hooked up normal..... Dam I'm frustrated how can just removing a airbox and airflow plug and reinstalling give anyone this sort of problem?
It starts idels real low then as soon as i try to give it gas it bogs or just dies.

Would a bad mass airflow meter cause this type of problem?

definitely check for intake leaks after removing and re-installing intake components (guess how i know??)

Is the AFM in the exact same spot it was before? Is it Level? Is the Inlet Duct cracked??

Due to the fact that I have to leave the country for work this week I had to haul it to Mazda! I'll fill you in with something stupid thats going to cost me $500.

Thanks for the replies though!
