OK, I am doing the MAF conversion on my 88gt in the morning and had one question. I dont have the whole harness for a MAF equiped car, but I do have the connector for the MAf with about 4 inches of the wires. I need to know where to run the wires on the computer end? Let me clarify, After changing the inlet tube, computer and installing the MAF sensor,.....I need to know what prongs in the computer connector to attach the wires from the sensor??? Any help is appreciated....

It is an easy install. All you need is the plug for the mass air. There are 4 wires to connect.
(1) Lead A, Red: Tap into wire at pin #37 or #57. Already in use at computer.
(2) Lead B, Black: Tap into wire at pin #40 or #60. Already in use at computer.
(3) Lead C, Tan/Blue: Add new pin at the empty ECM connector location marked #9. This is the sensor signal.
(4) Lead D, Blue/Orange: Add new pin at the empty ECM connector location marked #50. This is the sensor return.

Move Pin #11 to empty hole #32
Move Pin #51 to empty hole #38

Use 16 gauge wire. Try to use different colors to make the install as simple as you can.

All of the pins are numbered at the wire side of the ECM connector.

If you need to get some new pins you can go to any junkyard and cut them off just about any ford computer controlled car or truck.

Good Luck!
