Checking air mass meter -G70-
The air mass meter signal is used by the control unit to calculate the quantity injected and to control the required exhaust gas recirculation. The smaller the signal from air mass meter -G70- the smaller the quantity of fuel injected.
Special tools and workshop equipment required
