Title: TC air cleaner options
Post by: ramair351 on June 16, 2012, 04:36:38 PM
this is how i got my 88 TC. vane air flow meter unbolted and flopping around , with a universal filter crammed on it. car runs ok, but stalls occasionally. I found a stock air cleaner setup and will put that on for now. but whats the best solution?

Find or make a bracket to firmly mount the VAM, and use a quality cone filter on the end of the VAM. The stock airbox is total , and very restrictive.

well, i put the stock setup back together for now.  does KN make a filter for these things?    it runs better with the VAF level at least

I cut up a mustang 5.0 cold air intake and made it work, looks nice too!
