td5 MAF resistance measurements

Evening all,

My td5 seams a bit gutless below 2000rpm, remember having similar issues with VW vans before and the air mass meter was faulty wondering if it could be the same. Just checked the resistance on the meter and was wondering if anyone knows what they should be?
Mine is reading
Pin 1-2 16.8 m ohm
Pin 1-3 16.8 m ohm
Pin 2-3 18 m ohm

forget about resistance measurements when it comes to MAF, they are irrelevant cos it's temperature sensitive, measure them in orher ambient and the readings will be different... only live readings with tester are relevant or if your car runs better with it unplugged it's definitely fubar'd... don't you have access to proper diagnostic tool to plug it in? ...if not describe exactly the symptom and i'll tell you what to measure with multimeter
