Operation save Black Betty

[dude8383]

Isn't it the same MAF you already had in there?

yeh, but it was damaged by the coolant my old motor regurgitated at the track. i cleaned it with some of that maf cleaner crap and it improved quite a bit. initially the thing was barely idling and running SUPER rich. my money is on the maf needing replacement.

That guy describes exactly the symptoms my car is suffering from.

I just drove the car... WOW!!! Even with it not running 100%, power is insane even comparing to dude8383's old stroker M50

So its definitely the MAF... the thing ran amazing when we went around the block the first time. Come back, shut it off... decide to record a quick video and bam, misfiring again.

Can't wait to receive the MAF in the mail.

Thanks! I want the exhaust to be a bit more aggressive but its perfect for daily use. Don't want to attract too much attention!

Glad to hear Betty is up and running again. What oil cooler setup do you have on that motor?

Betty is looking good

Thats an IE oil cooler, works great. Temps at the track are at a very reasonable 230-240F.

Betty is looking good
