Unhooking the MAF and there is no change in how it runs is a good indication that it is not working.
I would start looking for a used one.
I do not know how to test a MAF.

Default hi guys

well here where i am now . good news i hope .
i bumped into an old friend who just happens to eat sleeps and craps land rovers does a lot of rallys etc ... this is after i go into a garage landrover specalist who said he would charge me £300 for a service its already had to find my problem plus parts . the first bloody thing ian done was take the pipe off of the distributor diaphram thing and suck it , there ya go he says diaphram burst . so hopefully all my problems with the very poor running is that , or am i clutching at straws


and thanks again

landys are like girls you know, they want to be part of your life, not just being popped up from storage when you need them.
as thank you for it will be that your life will be enriched from them, unlike by those inflatable dolls daimlers and bmws
