I think I found my misfiring problem. I unplugged my MAF with the engine running and the idle did not change at all. I assume I can just use a voltmeter and probe the red wire and see if i get voltage?

See the following website for some help from Tmoss (diagram designer) & Stang&2Birds (website host)

http://www.veryuseful.com/mustang/tech/engine/images/88-91eecPinout.gif

Measure between the Dark blue/orage & Tan/Lt blue wires.

MAF output will vary with road speed or engine RPM.

The following values are approximate:
idle - .6 volt
20 MPH - 1.1 volt
40 MPH - 1.7 volt
60 MPH - 2.1 volt

See http://pro-flow.com/ for help & if you browse the site, you'll find a better chart that the one I posted.
