Yea then its one of those. I gotta call him to double check incase he just did a badge swap like some people do. Gotta love the V6 to Cobra emblem swap.
Won't a check engine light come on if the MAF sensor is acting up ? Not sure but my 92 check engine light stayed on when I installed o/r h pipe

1995 I think..... no wait..... what was the year that they put the 5.0 engine in the SN95? Because he has 5.0 on the sides but I never bothered to actually check.
94 & 95 were the only years with 5.0 for sn95

No its because your 02 sensors weren't detecting any cats. You have to get Mil Elemenators or just Clear them out with a hand held. Nothing major.

that doesnt make sense unless you f**ked up your o2 sensors in the process. theres only two of them on a 5.0 and they are in front of the cats on the stock midpipe. CEL must have been something else.

Like Victor said , I don't believe I had mil eliminators on my off road h pipe . Drove it like that for over a year and didn't hurt anything .

P.s. Dude you need to calm down before someone knocks you down !

Well.... I guess no body really knows.... I'm going to call Cottman transmissions buts I'm kinda scared because the tranny shops in this area are shaddy. You come in with a minor problem and they end up replacing everything.

obd1 is basic crap, our cars now 96 and up have obd2 which will give you alot more information, because our motors have more sensors and crap
