Hi Folks,

I,ve been lurking for ages and had a password months ago. Only today I've been able to get in. (I think my husband has done something with the PC security).

Anyway, I apologise if my spacing and paragraphs aren't working, I need to learn all about posting, I'm a complete novice.

Hope you can bear with me.

Just to summarise;
I'm not DF or DA, just faded a few years ago because of inconsistencies in WT teachings etc.
My hubbie left first and got me examining my beliefs. I left a few months later.

We are much happier now!!

kool!

welcome!

Why do some people answer your question with another question?

by booker-t in

this burns me to no end when people do this.

i feel the whole world is getting like this day by day.

people can't just say yes or no or a direct answer anymore it always has to be with a question, or going in circles without ever answering the original question, or down right evading the question.

My full-time job for the last 26 years has been to expose the lying nature of the Watchtower and help people out of this organization. Running a non-profit organization is a big job, but I have always enjoyed what I do and the rewards are great. Not so much for income (25k per year) but I meet some great people and my main website at www.freeminds.org gets about 1400 unique visitors per day, #1 of its kind. There are over 400 megabytes of stories, articles, audio and video for free downloading. We now have a large percentage of our articles in Spanish, thanks To David Garcia and other translators. I network with all the old timers in this work that have been in ministry since 1980 or before, and I know almost all of them in person. Many have now retired, but I have no intention of that, God willing. I also print the Free Minds Journal, one of the few printed magazines about the JWs left. It is in its 26th year! I have encouraged many to start their own outreach as well, since I have never desired to "grow" my organization, but beleive in people starting their own. Throw out the seeds and they will sprout.

my nissan sentra (2000) failed the smog test.

the "check engine" light has been on for a few months now.. i just had it checked out this morning and i was told i need to replace the air flow meter sensor.. the estimate was $400 for a rebuilt-part and $600 for a brand new one.. does this sound right?

can somebody explain to me what this part's function is?.

zev

Yeah, zev knows plenty about faulty MAFs if he's a VW guy :)

i actually don't own a VW i own a Chevy Lumina. but i would by one if it wasn't a Passat, and newer that 2003. and i don't stock that many maf's. we just don't see allot of maf failures like some do i guess.

Go with autozone. If it doesn't fix the issue, you can return it. You will likely notice more power too.

thats another way, and usually autozone has really good warrantys. also try calling some other parts stores and see what they get. some things to have handy when you call are the year, make, model, and engine size. do you know if its a 4 or 6 cylinder and how many liters it is? these are things that you should have at the ready when you call. take it from a parts guy. although i do VW parts in a VW dealership, its all parts and when i get a call for a part and the person on the other end cant even tell me what kind of a VW they are driving, it can get very fustrating. just my helpful 2 cents

"air flow meter" and "O2 sensor" are not the same part.

sandy said "air flow sensor" and that part goes in the air cleaner ducting,

the O2 sensor goes in the exaust or manifold.

i wouldnt use a "used" part for either if you have the money, that being said, if you don't

and it will get you by, use the "used" part for now but be aware that you'll need to replace it again, only allot sooner.
