I am presently using a C&L 73MM air meter for 86-93 Mustang. I am running Ford Racing 24LB injectors. And a A9L ecu. The C&L has a CLEAR sample tube in it now for 24LB injectors.

Here is the question. I have seen on C&L's calibration chart that for a 86 - 93 Mustang using an A9L processor, using 24lb injectors, an ORANGE sample tube is needed. Now LATE MODEL RESTO shows on their calibration chart for the same air meter you use a BLUE tube. As the case may, be the chart showes the clear tube I have now is for a 73MM C&L meter for a '93 Cobra.

Until I decide wether to go to a different air meter, I am going to continue to use the C&L. I want the right air meter set up for my combo. What is the CORRECT color of tube I need for my C&L right now?
 
ok what i found out is the

green-36/38/42lbs 73/76/80mm maf

black-19/24/30lbs 73/76/80mm maf

orange-24/30/36lbs 73/76/80mm maf

purple-24/30/38lbs 73/76/80mm maf

gold-19/24lbs 73/76mm maf
 
I have the orange on order! Since I am running my Air Raid conical filter right off the air meter. I think I may have been using the wrong tube for a few years now, A clear one for a 73MM Cobra C&L. Thanks for the confirmation!
