new maf?
Hmmkay...
I've finally got the thing running and have been driving it around town all weekend and it feels great. The only problem is, it's only running with the MAF unplugged. When I plug the MAF in, it runs for a few seconds, rather roughly I might add, then dies.
The burnoff relay and MAF relay are both brand new and test fine. I've even replaced them with some spares I have laying around and get the same results.
I'm wanting to go ahead and do the speed density swap, but I'm having absolutely no luck finding a speed density ecm right now. I have to have it running by the 24th, so I'm thinking of just buying a new MAF and doing the swap later.
Does anyone know where I can find a Wells MAF? I noticed that Autozone doesn't carry them anymore. I can't find them anywhere else either. All I can find is the Cardone. Are those any good?
I've been reading posts about this for an hour and it's all pretty vague. Anyone know where I can find a Wells?

The brand doesn't matter greatly, as long as you get a thick-film type sensor instead of a hot wire type. Once you have one, it should be a lifetime unit. Wells just happened to be the first to retrofit the newer type sensor for older applications like ours.
