I'm need a stock 1996 explorer MAF and am a Motorcraft brand nerd, but they are no longer available.

I know a crappy efi electrical part can cause terrible running issues.

What brand do yall recommend or let me know if you have a stock 96 MAF you upgraded from let me know.

Honestly, find one in a wreaking yard is my 1st suggestion.
Not sure about any of those brands listed...

Maybe Tasker has a led on one??

These explorers are drying up in my wrecking yards and i go all the time. i think the 98-2000 MAF is a 6 wire model, i need the 4 wire MAF 96.

Hell that Cardone is only $30, I may just give it a shot.

6 wire has the incoming air temp sensor built into it, I have repurposed a 98 into a 96 to eliminate the added hole needed for the sensor in the air inlet tubing.
