Bosch supplied some of the electrical components for GM before Delphi

Thanks,
The part was for an 88 vert, would that be in that Bosch era?

I just went through this last month. Bosch built all MAF sensors for several years. A number of companies companies rebuild them, and I understand that some are being re-sold as AC Delco replacements. The rebuilt Bosch that I got from O'Reilley's (rebuilt by Cardone) is working beautifully. AutoZone sells them as well. Any actual new AC Delco units out there are going to be expensive and unnecessary. Beware of Chinese knock-offs that profess to be "built to rigid AC Delco standards". Typical rebuilt Bosch is in the $150-170 range; if this is about what you paid, consider just keeping it. Worked out well for me.
