    the egr has nothing to do with this.I don't run egr valves and all my cars ran fine
    any tips on how to check voltage? basically what im wondering is what wire to check? and how many volts should i be seeing?

    RYAN, did you ever do anything with the maf plug? i remember the connector was broke on it and i used to check to make sure it didnt slide off every once in a while. Was wondering if you put a new one on/ and if you soldered the connections together

    hey i didnt do anything with the plug. i dont remember seeing it broke.....do you just mean the plastic clip that holds it on broke? or an actual pin inside broke off?

    I had the same problem with idle and stalling when stopped. 2 things were my problem, I bought everything computer, wiring harness, maf meter off the same guy. Well in the main harness the maf wires were not pined into the plug that plugs into the computer. Pinned those in and still had problems. I bought a mass air meter for 24lb injectors from summit, problem solved. I have an 87 mustang gt with trickflow top end kit converted to maf and 24lb injectors. Summit's return policy is good so order it, try it, if that isn't the problem and can return it. Thats what I was going to do but it turned out to be my issue. Hope that helps you.

    well i resoldered the joints for the mass air harness and they are on real nice now. i also cleaned my mass air meter and the car ran A LOT better but still surged everyonce and a while and died one time... i really think its the mass air meter now. ill be buying a new one shortly.

    any suggestions? pro-m or pmass? anything else?
