88 Dash & Cruise.. and MAF issues

[vigman]

So here's a question for all you 85-89 Automatic owners
In the TACH window do you have the over drive indicator? I think I have a stick cluster in my auto car.

I've found my drive transistors blown for the cruise so I'm trying to find some generic replacements.... more news to follow.

I had my throttle plate bushed for $100.00 which took out all the slop, and got rid of my air leak, however my idle did not clear up, and my car still pinged under heavy acceleration ( No codes )


I did however unplug my MAF sensor and the car runs like a bat outa ( some very hot place down below )

No ping, great idle etc.

So any comments, thoughts from the gallery?

Let me guess, a bat outta HELL, right? :L

Seriously though Vig, if you unplugged the MAF and it ran better, something is wrong. It shouldn't run worth a damn.

Sorry but this old brain ain't functioning too well yet today so I can't help ya diagnose it right now. I'll see if I can find something later, but maybe by then someone else will have an answer for you.

Good luck!
