Product Description

PAT Air Mass Meter Insert - Your Key to Optimal Engine Management

Ensuring the smooth operation of your vehicle's engine management system, the PAT Air Mass Meter Insert is a crucial component. Positioned between the air filter and throttle body, this Mass Air Flow Sensor measures incoming air and often incorporates the Intake Air Temperature Sensor (ATS). The data collected by this sensor assists your engine's ECU in determining the correct fuel mix, ignition timing, and sometimes even transmission shifting.

How Does the PAT Air Mass Meter Insert Work?

  • Inside the Mass Air Flow Sensor is a small, electrically heated wire, with another sensor nearby monitoring its temperature.
  • At idle, minimal air flows over the wire, requiring low electrical input to maintain the wire's heat (around 200 degrees Celsius).
  • When the throttle is opened, the surge of air cools the wire, necessitating more electricity to restore the temperature. The greater the airflow, the more power is required.
  • This electric current directly represents airflow volume, providing your ECU with the information it needs to accurately inject the correct amount of fuel.

Potential Issues with the Mass Air Flow Sensor

  • A faulty Mass Air Flow Sensor can lead to numerous problems, including rough idle, sluggish performance, black exhaust smoke, poor fuel economy, and even a warning light on your dashboard.
  • The primary issue is contamination of the hot wire by dust, dirt, or oil, which can prevent accurate airflow readings.
  • While newer Mass Air Flow Sensors are designed to minimise this problem, they are not infallible. Oily aftermarket air filters are a common source of contamination.

Diagnosing the Problem

  • Check the sensor's signal with the appropriate scan tool or oscilloscope and compare it to the specifications for your vehicle.
  • Warning codes on your dashboard can also indicate a problem (look out for codes starting with P0068, P0100, P0101, P0102, P0103, P0104).
  • Don't overlook the basics! Intake leaks or faulty wiring can also affect the Mass Air Flow Sensor.

About this brand

PAT

Note: This item may not come in the manufacturers original packaging

Unfortunately, over the past few years, the Australian aftermarket has seen a significant increase in lower quality EFI and Engine Management products. It is easy for consumers and even technicians to be confused as to the quality of the products in the market. Because the issues experienced by workshops installing low quality parts can include safety, expensive repairs and damage to your reputation an increased request for quality products has become evident in the aftermarket.

Sometimes products shipped from leading manufacturers overseas require repackaging in Australia. In these cases we have begun to use a new range of premium packaging to enable easy identification of the premium brand or genuine product. Where required products from leading manufacturers including Pierburg, Bosch, Delphi, VDO, Denso, Valeo, Hitachi, VDO, TI Automotive, Walbro, Bougicord, FAE, Standard Motor Products, TE Automotive, Hella, Bremi and others may be supplied in the new PAT Premium Range packaging, giving you peace of mind that a quality brand product is enclosed.

Some PAT branded products may also be in their original packaging. Due to the changing nature of the supply chains around the world, our supplier sometimes will change suppliers. For example a product that used to be supplied as a Hitachi product might now be a Bosch brand. In all cases they will be well known OE type products as per the above paragraph.
