I have replaced everything ie; sensors, coils paks, injectors, plugs and wires, mass air flow, MAP, fuel pressure regulator, TPS, and knock sensors. The previous owner replaced fuel pump and filter. I keep getting p0103 mass air flow circulation low code and engine misfire code. When we tried three different MAF's. What should I do next? Please help!

Hi,

The idea that it has no power, and the exhaust smells rich, have you checked to see if one of the catalytic converters is clogged?

Do me a favor and look through this link. See if it mirrors what you experience.

If you look at the attachments below, they provide the diagnostics specific to the code. Take a look through them and let me know if you are comfortable performing them.

Take care,

Joe
