Intake issues... please help?

I have the series 77 K&n intake, it has the rubber elbow and then the "aluminum"? intake tube all the way to the filter and MASS air flow sensor... And i really dont oil the filter often, i think ive had it about 2.5 and done it like 3 times maybe 4?

WITH OUT PUTTING A SCANER AND SEEING ACTUAL READINGS U WILL JUST BE GUESSING....THE AUTO PARTS STORE SCANERS ARE THERE JUST TO SELL PARTS... THEY HAVE NO CLUE WHATS REALY GOING ON...THIS IS WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE TO KNOW WHAT IT IS FOR SURE
Circuit Description
The mass air flow (MAF) sensor is an air flow meter that measures the amount of air entering the engine. The powertrain control module (PCM) uses the MAF sensor signal to provide the correct fuel delivery for all engine speeds and loads. A small quantity of air entering the engine indicates a deceleration or idle condition. A large quantity of air entering the engine indicates an acceleration or high load condition. The MAF sensor has the following circuits:

damn you are a hell of a copy and paster!
i was just reading that in dealerworld too!
i'm not a technician but if its a 5.3 the intake gaskets leaking are pretty common.
and he's right i sell parts and i would burn all of those aftermarket scanners,they make everyone think they know what they are talking about!
anyway good luck

Haha damn. I really wish i knew what all that meant. I just talked to Munday Chevrolet and the guy there told me the same thing you said about the autozone ones not really describing the problem. I guess the only thing i really can do is take it to Munday and have them check it?

if it was mine i would pay the diag fee at the dealership,it will keep you from replacing parts it doesn't need!well if it was mine i'd walk out there and scan it in the parking lot

i worked on gm cars a while back and i remember a tsb about a over oiled aftermarket air filter causing MAF problems. you said you running a k&n filter and im assuming you oiled it, might be your problem there.

Also i dont know if this helps any, but i know that today when it came on, i was picking up speed and when my truck shifted to third gear it felt like the truck kind of jerked 2 times as opposed to the one thrust you feel when it normally shifts, it felt like 2 right after the other? and that is exactly when the light came on? maybe that has something to do?

you said munday chevy...on the north side of houston? if so dont...i dont know anyone there.....where do u live...i know a realy good guy, last i heard he was in conroe i think...i can call him and find out, he will do you right and not try to sell you shit u dont need, i hate that about this business...im out in katy so thats a long drive...all i do is eletrical or id help you.shoot me an e-mail severedtiestxs10@comcast.net
