92' 5.0 Won't start,

dv.sims · 03-01-2001, 11:27 PM

Will start up, run 15 sec, shut down and won't restart, wait 5 min and will so same thing. Ran codes, showed 6-6(MAF), any other ideas? Do I replace or look elsewhere?

Sounds like a bad MAF to me, too. Replace it. Good luck.

Do you know anyone else with that model mustang? Borrow their MAF, its easy to switch out. See if it works with a different maf, if so then I'm sure you can get one cheap from someone on here... heck I might still have my stock unit.

You got any mustang friends in the area?

That way you can try their MAF before buying a new one.

When my MAF failed I couldn't rev the car past 4000rpm while driving, but it would stay running. Very odd. At first I thought(with some helpers at mustangworks)that it was the fuel pump, but the MAF code came up, so I tried my buddies and that was it. I was glad to get rid of that stock unit anyway.

Good Luck and let us know how it turns out.
