how do you wire the ka24e maf on the ca? the kae maf is 3 prong, and the ca maf is 4 prong.. so obviously i need to wire the kae maf plug on the ca.. i just need a wire chart. OR is it the same guide as the z32 chart? thanks.

alright, i hooked it up.. and it runs crappy.. i have to repeatidly tap the gas to get it to rev up and go.. i checked for boost leaks.. none. (me and my friend have a boost leak tester) so i guess its the MAF.. any suggestions?

can be fuel, air, or spark.

test the coilpacks per FSM, also check the spark plugs.check the MAF per FSM.and for fuel, are you using the stock FPR? do you ahve a stock or aftermarket fuel pump? my walbro 255 lph made it hidiously rich (1900ppm AT IDLE of HC's) since the FPR couldn't keep up.

everything as far as fuel and air is stock. im using the stock KA fuel pump, and stock fpr. This MAF was old and real dirty when i got it. Ill check the plugs tho and the coilpacks are firing. Im getting fuel because im running def rich. My guess is either i have a leaking headgasket, or the maf is broke. The leaking headgasket theory is because im also running hot after a bit of driving.
