[QUOTE="Ithnu, post: 13224018, member: 152335"] I was working on the interior of my car and had left the hood up after replacing the air filter. I finished with the interior, dropped the hood and went for a ride, maybe 25 miles. I realized when I got back that I had forgot to put the air box cover back on so the air was coming from inside the engine compartment directly to the MAF. Yeah, yeah, dumb move. Now when I'm at 1/2 throttle to wide open it bogs down and feels like it lost 100hp. Feels normal up to that point and then the power loss happens. The engine still revs normal, the rpm increase is still steady, but huge power loss. Could I have gotten the MAF dirty during those 25 miles? Or something else in there? [/QUOTE]
