hey everyone need some help asap reason being I just bought a vl has 240,000kms I know its a lot but yeah car has turbo injectors turbo ecu and new fuel lines but its a n/a ,so my car was running mint when I got it and know all of a sudden when I start the car its fine it idles properly but when I go to rev it it doesn't want to get revs it backfires and stuff and I have to slowly rev it to build it up and even then it sometimes doesn't get revs but when I took the air flow meter out its was perfect was reving properly and all but as soon as I put it in problem happens again does the actual air flow metre sensor need to be changed or the actual air flow meter plug need to be changed. please help me could be another problem my guess is airflow meter

It doesnt hurt to do both. Get a known working AFM and see how you go first.
