Gaz 1060 Report post Posted November 30, 2013 96 e36 328 auto converted to manual. I had an intake backfire a week ago as i didnt quite hold the key long enough. Now the car starts fine but stalls straight away. I found a hole in the intake elbow so have replaced that. Disconnected the AFM and no change. Im thinking maybe there is a hole in the intake manifold but cant find one. Any ideas? What sort of damage could the backfire have done? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gaz 1060 Report post Posted November 30, 2013 Sorry by AFM i meant MAF. Since I disconnected shouldnt it run at least since its in limp mode? Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
