I thought I hooked up the vss wire from the cluster, but still have a code.
I have been living with a bad MAF sensor for about the last year. The engine ran OK but would fall on it's face completely at wide open throttle and hesitated and huffed out around 3200-3500 rpms. Sometimes the last month or so it would even fall flat at 2800, so I finaly replaced it. Wow what a difference being able to use the upper rpms! The drivability was fine unless you were pulling passes or towing where you really wanted to downshift. Now I can get all the rpms I want.On wide open throttle though, like if I stab the gas to the floor it will still hesitate. If I ease into it it's fine, just at quick WOT if feels like not enough fuel or something.Has anybody else expereinced this? I did a pretty good port and polish and I have a open air filter. Could I be getting too much air? Would oversized injectors help, or maybe a stock filterbox?It's really fine since it actually revs now, but now that I have a baseline I feel like I can tune it a little...
BigMike,anyone, iv seen you say all 79 on trucks have a vss in the cluster. can you point me in the direction of the info on how to tap into it on a first gen? if its in this thread i must have missed it. thanks
I put an ohm meter on the remaned MAF sensor and it reads as bad ... it's under warrantee
All right, I have a confirmed good MAF and also replaced the TPS just in case, still have a lean code check light and a 3500 rpm/wide open throttle stumble. I can get more rpms after the new MAF but only if I ease into it. When I really try to get it on it falls flat.What now? Fuel pressure?
