Nuke it from orbit; it's the only way to be sure.

Would a dirty MAF throw a CEL? No light and starting/running normally. Just don’t want to go through that again!

A dirty MAF will not always throw a CEL. My CEL comes in every few months and the obd scanner throws a MAF code, which I’ll clear out.

And I assume you didn’t have your foot on the gas pedal when it was redlining? lol I have to ask

I'd clean the MAFs and see if it repeats itself. They're easy to access.

Just be really careful when cleaning them. There is a thin film layer you don’t want to ruin.

I remember I did the same thing as you once, and when I started my Z after coming back after 20 minutes, the car started and then it just died. I waited and it started it again, then it ran fine. Anyone have anything similar happen? If so what did you do to deal with it?

Cory Gillmore · 11-23-2019, 01:06 PM

Speaking of CELs, my Z hasn’t thrown one in over a year! Almost makes me worry more lmao.

Kept doing it to me, cleaned the throttle heads and it never happened again.
