What Does an Air Flow Meter Do?

The Air Flow Meter (Mass Air Flow Sensor) measures the volume and density of air entering the engine's intake system. This critical data is sent to the engine control unit (ECU), which uses it to calculate the precise amount of fuel needed for optimal combustion. The correct air-fuel ratio is essential for maximum engine performance, fuel efficiency, and emissions control. Without a properly functioning air flow meter, your engine will run poorly or may not start at all.
