        This seems silly.

          Because it is. But I did learn a lot, as I'm sure others did. :D

            I stand corrected then...every car I ever worked on has been equipped with a MAF.

            Did I notice a difference with the screen off? I can't answer that...I did my whole intake mods at one time...so...

              Does the 3.4 even have a MAF? I didn't think they did.

                I just pulled the screen out and sprayed it with some carb cleaner..wasn't dirty at all. When I get my hands on some money, I'm going to begin with the mods Christopher has =)

                I think they said the 3.4 didn't have a MAF sensor, it has MAP sensor.

                  3.4's do not have MAF sensors, that is what makes running dry Nitrous kits on them so dangerous.
