quick question
 
can the MAF on a 91 5.0 work on a 91 2.3 and after i get it on and pluged in and drive it aound the block what would make it run like crap (other than the redneck engineering)

you would more than likely need to change out the matching injectors as well. It would also help if you are running something such as a twEECer but prob not neccessary if you run matching injectors.

In a few weeks I will have my svo back on the road. We can meet up one day and I can tell you why it is too much trouble to do that. Unless you know more than Dale.

Your 2.3 mustang came with one? MAF

IIRC, 1991 was the first year for the MAF on the 2.3, my 89 (Ranger) is speed density wheras the 1992 (Ranger) I just picked up is MAF.

after putting the one from the 5.0 on my 2.3 it ran so bad so i just put the factory crap back on ... maybe i just need to quit trying to change up the ole 4banger

My wife's '90 used to burn plugs real quick. I put the factory Motorcraft plugs in it and it's fine now. Is the car running too lean?

It may have been for the Mustangs, but the Rangers got DIS and the dual plugs in 89.
