M20 AFM to M30 AFM with 19lb injector questions

[kamotors]

Can you point me in the suppliers direction? :-)

ebay, the guy has them on sale, he sells remanufactured 19lb ers

i gave the AFM with stock injectors another chance, and it seemed to get worse as the engine got hotter, RPMs went up so slow i thought my car might explode, the weird thing is at about 3/4 throttle it ran super smooth, but then i floor it and everything stops. I think i just keep things stock, what if i install the injectors and then still have the problem?

The one thing that people keep forgetting is that the internals in the 027 AFM are the same as the internals in the stock i AFM. So realistically, if you have a good operating AFM, your car should run fine but maybe just a bit lean due to more are being produced. And if you put the 19lb injectors in, dont worry about them. They wont hurt anything. My buddy runs his 89 iS with just the 19lbers on it with no problems.


If anyone would like it, I can swing by the junk yard I usually go to and pick up one or two. When I get them I look for low mileage cars so that they have the best chance of being in good condition. Before I take them apart for a thorough cleaning, I test them on my car to make sure they are running correctly. Then I take them all apart down to just the housing and clean everything. They get really nasty over the years. After I'm finished cleaning them I will throw a coat of silver or flat black on the housing and put everything back together with new shiny hardware. I can pick up the AFM from the yard for about $40 and then do the cleaning and new hardware for a bit more. If anyone is interested, drop me a PM and we can further discuss the product, price, shipping etc.

Okay, lemme get this strait, so i have an eta, m30 injectors will work or no?

i know the etas have different injectors.. also, does the m30 afm work?

and is running one with out the other a very bad idea?

[nando]

the AFM is absolutely not a restriction on the eta - and you already have 19# injectors. don't even waste your time, all you're going to do is make it run like shit.

good to know....

thats why i'm guessing its a broken AFM, ZM blue devil is sending me another, then i'll hope that that one works, if it does i'll throw in the 19lb injectors and call it a day.

Sounds like a good plan. Kudos to ZM Blue devil for sticking by his services and being honest. That's hard to come by these days. Most guys would just say, sorry it worked for me. I can't help that it not working for you

would it be worth going to m30 injectors for no other reason then theyre lower mi then the current eta ones?

sounds like the afm is pointless

Ok bro, here's the deal, M30 19lb injectors or high impedance injectors. ETA injectors which I believe are 18.5lb injectors, are low impedance injectolrs. All they would do would be mess with your ECU's reading of the fuel injection and most likely not even let the car idle.

Thats why they are saying dont worry about it.

I am planning providing a 63mm throttle body, 027 AFM, rebuilt 19lb injectors (design 2, heard design 3's are problematic with this swap),

So is anyone using the design 3's or is everyone running the design 2's??
At the junkyard I found a 96 mustang V6. The numbers on the injectors are 9F953. I haven't found anything on the internet as to what these are.

Design 2's are easier to come by and they also work better for the swap.
