Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General Troubleshooting Question about MAF sensor

I've got a '94 Taurus LX wagon with the 3.8 V6, so I know the vintage you're talking about. You might also check the boards at http://www.tauruscarclub.com/ . They are sometimes useful, but these boards are by far the most prolific.

On a side note, KAZZANDER, I just had $15xx worth of repairs done to the wife's van. Just stuff I'd been waiting to do plus something I didn't know about until they called me. Don't worry though; extended warranty is taking care of it all.

Gimme a ring if you get a chance.

Thank goodness for warranties, right?

I won't be able to call you from work anymore; got my ass chewed by a battleaxe female SSgt for talking to Rebecca on the phone. At the most, Rebecca calls maybe three times a week, and we talk for 8-10 minutes. SSgt was trying to make it sound like Rebecca calls several times a day, and we talk for 20 minutes every time. She's just pissed because I completely disagree with the Corps' policy on wearing a belt with civilian attire. She tried to argue it with me but I completely shut her down -- she came back with the only thing she had; she used her rank to f**k with me. Hey, when you have a GT score as low as hers, rank is all you have!

I just wanted to send out an extra thanks to MFE. I finally got some free time this weekend and took the sensor off. Holy crap! The forward filament had a layer of scum caked on it almost 1/16 of an inch thick!!! I got it all cleaned up, hooked it back up, and man alive, that car runs like a raped ape! I guess my next mission is to check out the airbox and figure out how all that crap got in there in the first place.

Thanks again!

Glad it worked...
