C+L Mass Air Meter

MidNiteBlu 5.0 · 12-02-2002, 11:10 PM

Ok ive been looking at the C+L 76mm mass air meter kist with the inlet tube and everything for like 200-220 bucks. My question is does this come with the electronics (meter) ? every picture i have seen it does not show the meter but i would think that it does come with it. Anyone have it? Thanks

Later,
Nick

Is your car near stock? Because 76mm seems a little steep for a near stock stang. Go with the 73mm. Either way, there won't be a big difference if you are still running the stock intake and tb.

The reason i ask is because i have feeling my MAF is going bad (see my still misfiring thread) and if i have to buy a new one i may as well upgrade

C&L mass air meters do not come with electronics. You use the stock mass air sensor. The sample tube ( about $18 ) can be changed depending on your injectors rather than having the electronics recalibrated ( about $90 ) That is the difference between C&L and some of the others. I have a 76mm on my car and works just fine. If the maf electronics are bad on your car then pick one up at the auto parts store or Ford dealership.

How much do you think new electronics would be?

Call a ford dealer and ask them. Mabey get a used stock meter from E-Bay and then get the C&L 76. If its your electronics I would look into a Pro M. They come with the electronics.

or try your luck at the salvage yard, with a sensor and just buy the c&l. i have had a pro-m (sensor went bad) then went to a granatelli (no problems since)

I'm in Costa Mesa and I have a MAF you can switch out temporarily to see if that helps your problem. PM me, later, Keith
