Some how I managed to break the clips on the maf connector on the harness is there anywhere anyone knows of that sells these things, I really don't want to buy a new harness just cause of this one stupid connector.

If you are very clever, you will find that the MAF connector comes apart so that you can remove the pins. A very small screwdriver releases the lock in the front of the center insert, while another small screwdriver inserted in the back pushes it out. Once the center insert is out of the connector shell, the pins come out easily. New pins are available from AutoZone in a $5 electrical pin kit for Fords.

If you can get the pins out, the plastic shell is less than a $1 at most junkyards.

All Fords & Mercury's have the same wiring. Just about any one of them made before 96 should be a donor.

Any dealership should have the connector shell. I've bought different sensor connectors before at the dealer and they are fairly cheap(between $5-20)
