The Mass Air Flow Sensor (MAF) is a component in the Saturn Ion vehicles that help in controlling the amount of air that gets into the engine. This information is then fed to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) and then the fuel injector timing is altered in order to ensure that there is the right combination of air and fuel. This sensor is crucial in the delivery of optimal combustion across the board, especially regarding the varying conditions. Saturn Ion cars use the Vane Meter (VAF) as well as the Hot Wire sensors as Mass Air Flow Sensors. The VAF sensor calculates airflow via a spring-loaded vane but it has such problems as restricted airflow and mechanical wear and tear. On the other hand the Hot Wire sensor provides high accuracy because it measures current change in a heated wire placed in the flow of air. Some other types are Hot Film and Karman vortex sensors which also have their own ways of achieving the expected accuracy in airflow measurement. Maintenance is important to keep away problems that may be as a result of contaminants that may pose a menace to the sensors.
