Massair Flow sensor
I have been having trouble my car running lean and timing was around 32 at wot! It finally blew a head gasket! I talked to Ed Wright who did my tuning and he pulled up my file and it only had 22 degrees when cold and 16 when it is warm ! Talked to him for about an hour he told me that the mass air flow sensor went bad or got some oil on it and that this would cause the trouble! He said this happens all the time he keeps extra there just in case! Has anyone heard of this? He discribed my problem to a tee! (ltfc at 25 car beening lean ; sluglish; timing that high) It is a stock mass air flow sensor!
