Mass Airflow ?
Whats going on guys ... just got a 88 GT 5.0 and there is no maf sensor and i don't even see the harness for it .....
is it possible that the car doesn't have one...
Second problem is that its idle is high around 1000 rpm and timing feels off pulls strong bottom end 1000-2800 then it pings ....
by the way im new to mustangs so be patient with my lack of knowledge about them...
thanks

I have an 88 GT and even though it ran fine with speed density, after I converted to MAF, throttle response was drastically better, and the car had more pull to it, so I recommend converting, its an easy thing to do yourself.
