My 76mm C&L MAF and intake tube review

[vristang]

Just thought I'd update this thread. I did get the new sensor and have run it. No change, runs great.

Here's the part numbers of the two Fox sensors that work great in my C&L.

Original: E9ZF-12B579-AA AFH55-03

New: FIZF-12B579-AA AFH55-03B

I appreciate you coming back.

It wasn't until just now that this hit me, but I think those are actually the same MAS, just from different years.

In most Ford part and casting numbers the first 2 digits designate the year.
E9 = 1989
F1 = 1991

The next 2 digits would signify the application
'ZF' would be for a Fox A9* and 55mm MAF.
'VF' would be for a sn95 5.0HO and 70mm MAF.
'SF' would be for a Cobra (either 93 or 95).

Does this make sense to any one else?


Sorry for the side track...
But this would explain why you didn't see any difference between these 2 sensors.
And...
that should be the correct sensor for your C&L and computer (A9*).
If I suggested otherwise earlier, I apologize for any confusion. With two discussions going on I may have gotten mixed up

so are you saying you replaced the electronics or the entire maf?

76mm C&L meter with stock Fox sensor.

On a side note: Got my N2O working this weekend. No problems there either.

Put your car on a dyno with a wide-band O2. You should use a Mustang-type dyno. Even better is to data log with a real wide-band O2 and under real world conditions.

SOME people do get LUCKY with C&Ls. It's a cr*p shoot - pure and simple.

Get 10 Fox MAF sensors from the junk-yard. Get the POS C&L flow-tested with each sensor, THEN we'll talk!

Joe-
Would mind elaborating on what design features make the C&L less than stellar?

I seemed to have pretty good luck with the C&L.
But I am not saying they are a perfect design.

Just wondering what the problem areas are?

thanks,
