the car idles fine its just when i give it gas or plug in the maf that it dies. Would that be a vacuum leak or fuel pressure? I could not find a leak or hear one. all the vacuum lines are good. Yes and i will get my money back on the maf. Any more help would be greeted. Thanks

Got a new maf and it did not cure the problem. Not sure what to do next.

Well its not the maf. I put a new one on and it does the same thing. It still dies when plugged in and if i give it gas it will die. IM LOST PLEASE HELP

OK thanks I tested the maf and it is bad so Im getting anthor one tomorrow will let you know if that cures the problem Thanks

I tested the maf and it is bad will be getting a different one tomorrow. Thanks

I have a 93 es300 And I was just wondering what the purpose of the air flow meter is? Could a bad airflow meter keep your car from running if you give it gas? When i plug mine in it makes the car die. Thanks

Its almost there please help me if you can

ok The car now idles. the only thing I have unplugged is the airflow meter. When I plug it in the car dies. Also when I give the car gas it will die. I can slowly give it gas, but i mean very slowly. Also if I put it in gear it dies. But it idles great. Almost there please help

Ok I cleaned the iacv and it stays idling. But if I give it gas it will die. I also have the tps unplugged and the airflow meter. As soon as I plug them in it will die. Hey at least it is idling now. Anymore help would be appricated.

My car does the same thing except when i give it gas it will die.

ok thank you

Is there anywhere I can find how to clean my airflow meter and tps on a 93 es300?

Your rite the back camshaft was of a 1/4 of a turn. Car now starts, but then it shuts off after a few seconds. With the airflow meter plugged in it just turns over but if I unplug it it will start then shut off. Not sure what would cause this. Can you help? thanks

ok i put the air cleaner and maf back on and tried to start it. It just turned over no start. I unplugged the maf and it would start and then shut back off. Also when the maf is unplugged the check engine lite will come up with code 24. When the maf is plugged in i get no check engine light at all not even when the keys is turned on. I checked the codes with a jumper wire. im lost Thanks

ok ill try that thank you very much

I cleaned the Iacv and the mass air flow is disconnected. I have the airintake off. So I can get to things easier.

Alright my 93 es300 car runs good now. Just for a few seconds though. Just had the timing belt replaced. I double checked it and it is on rite. When car is started, It runs for a few seconds then just shuts off. What could cause this? thanks

If a key is not programed to the car will the car start up at all? My car will start then shut off. 93 es300. Thank you

Just got the 93 es300 running the shop had the back camshaft off about 1/4 a turn. Starts up now but as soon as it starts it shuts off. Anybody know what causes this? car has sat for about 4 years.

ok thank you very much

I have a 93 es300 if the timing belt breaks will it cause damage to the valves or piston? Or will it not interffer.

My 93 es300 I am trying to set the timing but, I have the crankshaft and both cams set where they need to be. But the rotor will not point to the # 1 wire. I have pulled the distributor out. I have tried to line it up. The rotor will line up past the #2 wire. How do I fix this? Thanks

My car wont start and I noticed the timing is off a little bit the rotor points to # 2 wire when it is at tdc. The cams are off just a little bit too. Would this cause the 93 es300 not to start or just run really rough.

I checked the timing and the crankshaft and camshaft pulleys are real close. But the rotor does not point to the number 1 wire. It points to the # 2 wire. the camshaft pulleys are off very little. wiil this keep it from starting? It should a least fire a little bit Shouldnt it.

I checked the plugs and they looked like they were getting fuel on them. I pulled codes from the ecu and nothing came up. the car ran fine. All i did was have someone put in a new raditor. Then when I picked it up the car would not start. Dont know what they did. I checked the efi relay and it was good. I am going to check the open circuit relay next.
