I don't know how much this helps, but I have one on my 95 SHO. My cylinder setting is 6(whatever number of cylinders you have goes here), and the throttle type is ascending(arrow facing up). And I'm pretty sure that the Contour's use a Hot Wire type MAF sensor too. I'm not sure, my Taurus is a little different than your 'Tour. So I would wait for one of the local CSVT gurus to chime in.
