Help me identify my MAF
Hey guys, I got a deal on a C&L 73mm MAF w/filter and Red injectors.
Previous owner put 25k miles on these parts and says they are 30lb injectors.
I have several basic questions..
1) Are these injectors really 30lbs and what is a reasonable way to clean them? (All the injectors measure 14.4 to 14.6 ohms )
2) Is this 73mm body truly calibrated for 30lb injectors? Meaning can I just plug and play with a stock ECU? (the MAF sensor has the same part number as my stock 1989 one. E9ZF-12B579-AA AFH55-03)
3) What is the small threaded rod for? (it has a roll pin pressed in the top which hits the MAF housing so it can't turn. It's a little loose and pokes through & into the wires air flow tube. (shade tree tuning?))
4) What power level is this good up to?
NOTE: I don't have tuning software yet so I can't tweak the MAF transfer function. I'll have my wideband installed before swapping these parts.
Thanks for the replies in advance!

1. Yes, they're 30lb injectors. Just Google " how to clean fuel injectors"
2. C&L mass air housings are junk. They use a flow tube to "calibrate" the mass air sensor. That is the reason you have a stock mass air on top.
3. That rod is there because Billy Bob lost the screw that really goes there.
4. Ditch the C&L. The fuel injectors are usually rated to about 430ish at the most N/A.

OK thanks.
I don't like how close to the entrance of the tube the wires are. They ought to have made the tube & MAF position as close to OEM as is possible. Then tweaked the end diameter to get the A/F in line with the stock MAFTF.
btw, What tuning software do you use? I've only ever used SCT pro-racer for OBD2. Not sure what I should be looking at for this old stang. (I like to spray a dry shot and feed the fuel via larger injectors / pump)

I haven't used my tuning software yet because my project took a bad turn. So I've put it on the back burner for now. I have a MTX-L wideband and Moates Quarterhorse sitting in boxes though. My software is Binary Editor 2010 on my Netbook.

If you want to get rid of the Meter I might want to take it off your hands...PM me your price please
Alot of people on the net do say C&L is junk but I know people who swear by them and have never had an issue with them.
