Manual Transmission

Air Flow Meter:

PURPOSE
The airflow meter measures intake air volume, and converts these readings into voltage signals by means of a variable resistor (potentiometer).

LOCATION
Mounted in the air induction system near the air cleaner.

OPERATION
Voltage signals are sent to the ECU and used to determine injection duration and proper fuel delivery. When intake air volume is low, the voltage is high; when the intake air volume is high, the voltage signal is approximately zero.
