Ok at first I provided the backstory to keep from answering questions that I have already answered, but it seems to have complicated things, I will clairify my questions.
This started under the thread "F-303 cam and timing chain questions" but I need to expand the questions and info as I am in need of more answers.
Thanks for the cam specs on the F-303 cam 90notch!
This is my timing chain issue:
Michael Yount or any other of you Veterans who could help: I'll start with the timing chain. Anyways the timing chain I am speaking of, the heavy duty one, is definately an aftermarket chain. You (Michael) said if I'm gonna degree it I need a new gearset anyway, why is that? It is already quite new. Yeah I know it is not brand new but if it is within tolerances then it is good right? That should be the bottom line right? I use the term loose to describe how the chain feels because I have two other shortblocks sitting here and I have some stock chains to compare it too, and they are loose fitting also (i.e. they have no problem coming on or off the motor) but the aftermarket chain that I would like to use is even more loose, and when I take this chain and lay it atop the stock chain, the chain length is noticeably longer, not to metion it looks to be twice as strong as a stock chain, which is said to be a 100,000 mile chain supposedly. If this chain I have is still within specs, it should be ok to use, correct?
This is my Lean issue:
I have recently dicovered that the MAF sensor that I was running was the stock 93 MAFsensor with a larger 73mm housing, but I thought that it was calibrated for a 24 lb inj and it wasn't; it should have been rich right? Because the comp thinks the inj are smaller, it dumps alot more? Am I right about this? This combo had worked fine in the 93 with the same parts, why not my 95? Is the computer THAT much different from a 93 to 95, cause that is the only thing that was different between the combo's, and the 93 ran perfect. Also tried swapping the 93 computer into the 95 and the car ran like total ***** and dumped hella white smoke, way down on power. I have noticed that the Air intake Charge sensors are in different locations. Does this affect the MAF? Do I have to use a MAF specifically for a 95? Should I be asking this on the SN-95 section? (I guess I will) I have heard that the computers are a big pain with these 95 cars. Will a 93 MAF work with a 95? That is the main question.
I first thought it might be easier to figure the problem if I gave more back history, but it seems I was wrong, I will begin with these questions. Any constuctive imput would be appreciated, thanks.
