Ok, let us know what happens.
Hey guys, I replaced my MAF with a junkyard part and she runs great. Though i still get some "pinging" running 87 octane. Did the 93 octane ruin my MAF? I also used a throttle body cleaner/lubricant and changed my plugs. It runs good but what can i do about the "pinging"?? The reason i tried a junkyard part is cost, $14.99 vs $128.99 and if it didn't work the yard would take the part back and refund me. I also replaced my starter this week, it died a sudden death but after removing it i could see why!! Ford redesigned the new starter with a wire seal instead of the plug in (you strip crimp and heat to seal the wire). Good idea but they didn't take into account that the plastic snap on cover for the main terminal doesn't fit now. So the smaller wire is sealed but the main wire is now exposed. Parts store doesn't know of a replacement cover, do they have one that you know of. Thanks for all your help, you've saved me alot of time money and effort!!

What is your timing set at?
Huh? My truck is EEC-IV and I have a distributor... I don't know about the OP's vehicle though...EEC-IV takes care of that, no dist.
