I managed to find some time last night to swap out the mass air flow sensor on the raider with a spare unit I had. I plugged it in and fired it up and poof* ** back to running like a champ. No check engine light, no trouble codes. But I am just happy it turned out to be something simple. Has anybody ever rebuild one of theses units? There really doesn't seem to be that much to it. I hope this helps anybody else. I am interested to see if my gas mileage goes back to normal now.
