My MAF from FPO was only 50 bucks.
Hm. My MAF was fine up through last summer, so I don't think it's a factory problem.
What is FPO? Are they online? The best price I've seen is $89 from fordpartsonline.com. Kragen and Autozone want $101 for remanufactured crap!
If I have to buy a new MAF, maybe I should get a larger diameter one. Do you know anything about what is or is not a workable replacement? Would a duratec MAF work? Those cost like 50% more...
