heres a couple pics of one of them. The other one is the exact same except for having a screen, this one has a smoother flow on the inside of it from where it goes bigger to smaller

Most people believe that the MAF meter is calibrated for the injectors.....from the factory and using factory parts that is a big NO. The computer is tuned to run the injectors. When aftermarket MAF's started comming out they would use sampling tubes to "fool" the computer so it would run better for specific injectors. Hense where the myth came to be.....
The sensor is meant to read the amount of air comming through the housing. A 55mm sensor reads the amount of air that flows through a 55mm housing so if the sensor is put into a 70mm housing it is still thinking about 55mm amounts of air so more air is comming in and the computer has to compensate for the leaner condition and for some people it can work and some people have issues with this..
What you need is a stock 94/95 sensor..part number F2VF-12B579...
92-94 Crown vic
94-95 GT/cobra
94-95 mustang 3.8
92-94 town car
92-94 grand marquis
Those vehicles come with a 70MM housing and the correct sensor needed to be as close as possible for the computer to work correctly...

guys... that is a C&L meter!
You change the sample tube based on injector size.
The sensor is supposed to match the ecu you run. You should run an A9L or A9P, etc. to match the sensor you already have.
Go to the C&L site and figure out what injector the 'green' tube is for.

gotcha, that helps dudeboy. I also wasn't saying that the injectors would be a cure all, just was thinking if this sensor reads a higher volume of air and my current injectors will not keep up they may help out getting the car running decently, just fyi and not to start a huge discussion.
Ill take a look at that site, hopefully these injectors are a good match lol
