An air flow meter, also know as air consumption meter, is a device that measures how much air is flowing through a tube. It does not measure the volume of the air passing through the tube, it measures the amount of mass flowing through the device in a defined time segment. So, an air flow meter is just an application of mass flow meters for a special medium.

How do you replace the air flow meter on a 1989 BMW 325i?

The airflow meter is located on the air intake duct on the right hand side front of the 325i. 1) Remove the air cleaner assembly from the airflow meter. 2) Disconnect the electrical connector from the airflow meter. 3) Remove the nuts and lift the airflow meter from the engine compartment. I can explain how to perform checks to see if this is working before you change it if you wish. Please note the idle stabiliser valve and the throttle position switch can cause similar problems.

How do you put a vl commodore airflow meter to a 1988 magna?

To install a VL Commodore airflow meter on a 1988 Magna, you will need to adapt the mounting point to fit the Magna's intake system. This typically involves modifying the air intake piping to accommodate the airflow meter's design and ensuring a proper seal to avoid leaks. Additionally, you'll need to connect the electrical wiring from the airflow meter to the Magna's engine management system, which may require some custom wiring or harness adapters. Finally, ensure the setup is calibrated correctly for optimal performance.
