How much is a Replacement Ford Mass Air Meter?

[John Smith]

Hi,

How much is a replacement Mass Air Meter from Ford usually for a 2003 GT?
My car ran lean on the Dyno last week and I was thinking that it could be a problem with the Mass Air Meter. Im not getting any codes or anything like that, so Im not sure this is the problem. The only reason I am suspicious is because I once brought the car to Ford complaining of detonation, they hooked the car up to the scope and said everything was fine, but they didnt check the Mass Air Meter because, as they said "after market air filter present." I guess it is possible that the tune my car came with from Ford could have been lean as well. I know that they changed the tune later in the year; maybe that is the reason why.

Thanks,

Exactly what readings on the dyno did you get? Before I'd invest in a new meter when you are not throwing codes, I'd consider a tune or EEC reflash.

Well, I am going to be getting a tune when I get my Kenne Bell installed next month (I will be using the Kenne Bell supplied tune) But their tune is based on the cars original tune (I think thats why they ask for the cars calibration code) so, if there is something causing the car to run lean I am worried that the car will still run lean with the blower tune (which would be very bad)

I saw that price over SHM, thought it was little high. I can install it myself; I just have to come up with 35 grand for the part.

They are about $200.

Gotta love those friggin dealer service places. I had a bad fuel pump, but they wouldn't even look at my car b/c I have underdrive pulleys. kcuf the dealers.
