 You can see that as the throttle was quickly closed, the idle switch went active and engine speed (RPM) started to fall, as it's supposed to.  But airflow per rev actually ROSE!  If engine speed and engine load are falling, airflow per rev should fall as well. You can see that as the throttle was quickly closed, the idle switch went active and engine speed (RPM) started to fall, as it's supposed to.  But airflow per rev actually ROSE!  If engine speed and engine load are falling, airflow per rev should fall as well.

 What you basically do is to tell the ECU to clamp airflow under these conditions to some value that you know is more reasonable. ​ If the throttle is closed (idle switch is active), you can assume airflow demand is minimal and you can clamp any abnormally high airflow reading accordingly. What you basically do is to tell the ECU to clamp airflow under these conditions to some value that you know is more reasonable. ​ If the throttle is closed (idle switch is active), you can assume airflow demand is minimal and you can clamp any abnormally high airflow reading accordingly.
