Re: Engine Sometimes Cutting Out on Acceleration
I would start with the MAF. Easiest way to check it is to replace it with a known working one. You can also attempt to fix yours if it is repairable. There are documents in the How-To Documents.

Seconded, do you have a check engine light on? Even if not, id still check for memory codes, just in case something was stored.

Re: Engine Sometimes Cutting Out on Acceleration
Random or sudden stalling, it would seem is the MAF. It was in my case too.

Re: Engine Sometimes Cutting Out on Acceleration
Again, I hate to appear idiotic, but I can't find which articles in the How-To Docs cover the MAF....Please take the trouble to continue steering me in the right direction.....MUCH APPRECIATED!!!
