I was thinking the other day that I wanted a new mass air sensor but was not going be able to afford one for a while. So the other day I had some time so I was went to the wrecking yard to see what I could find. I was looking at all the Fords and I realized that all the V8 cars and trucks had the same sensor but some had bigger diameters. So I looked for the biggest one I could find that just needed a little cleaning. I pulled it off of a 94 Thunderbird and took it to the counter and asked the guy if the sensor had the same part number and he could not tell me. I asked him what he would sell it to me for and he said $5 so I told him I would take it. I went to get my ATM card and it was not in my walet. I told him my wife had my card and asked him to hold it and he handed it to me and said "Get ya next time". I went home swapped the sensor from the old mass air and it works like a charm.

Now the question does anyone know the diameter, because I could not find it on the net? And how much HP do think I gained? The buttometer feels like it has little more get up and go.
