What Does an Air Flow Meter Do?

The Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor measures the volume and density of air entering the engine, providing critical data to the engine control unit (ECU). This information allows the ECU to precisely calculate the correct amount of fuel to inject, ensuring optimal air-fuel ratio for maximum performance, fuel efficiency, and emissions control. Without a functioning air flow meter, the engine will run poorly or may not start at all.
