Yours will most likely have the thermistor on the MAF. Also identified by having 5 wires on the MAF plug. Older 144s have 4 wires and an external thermistor.

The thermistor is held in place in V-shaped terminals. Spread with a small screwdriver, move to replacement sensor and nip up with small pliers.

Plenty of people have used the 1.8 MAF on the 2.0 with no problems.
Moving the thermistor onto the exchange MAF also works.
 


 







 



Yup, that's what I did with my 2.0 2001 sport

Thanks loads for all the advice....
I'm a bit nervous of trying the 1.8 MAF option in case i mess it up (i'm a gardener not a mechanic ! Smile ), but i'm going to ask around to see if i can find someone who'll do it. Definitely worth a go if it saves me that much money Big smile
 
Thanks again, i'll let you know if it solves my stalling problem...

It is reasonably straight forward.
Whereabouts are you?

It sounds pretty straight forward, i just can't afford to mess it up......the cars just swallowed £307 in front discs, pads & a caliper !!!

I'm from Woodley but live in Manchester. Can it wait until Christmas?Big smile

Check the number of wires on the MAF plug. It will be 4 or 5.
4 very easy swap.
5 pretty easy swap.

It's been getting progressively worse for a few months now, & is driving me mad....not to mention increased fuel consumption !
 
I'm waiting to hear back from an ebay supplier who does genuine Bosch MAFs to see what he comes up with, possibly around £100 which sounds bareable.........just.
 
If i'm still stalling my way round Berkshire at Christmas you may hear from me.............thanks Smile

Eurocarparts.
Andrew Page if you are in the Midlands or above. Not 100% sure but think they will only deliver to Trade.
