SOLVED - 1989 Ford Chassis - MAP cable
Hello again,
EDIT AGAIN: Okay, my hesitation to pull too hard was unfounded. It ended up pulling off okay. I just didn't want to break the plastic module it connects to but ended up finally coming off alright.
EDIT: From my searches I believe it is the MAP sensor (Manifold Absolute Pressure)
Well I'm back at it. Our last trip the service engine soon light came on. I thought/think/know that I had a bad alternator (tested). But as I was replacing that, I see the cable from the mass air flow sensor is melted to the engine. I can reach where it connects to a module of some type. My problem is I can't see how it connects. It looks like it's just a hose that slides onto it. No screws,clamps or anything like that. I've been searching for a bit here and can't find anything on how to remove it.
Thanks for any input.
With the problems I had with finding the correct alternator.. I know I need to take the old part in for them to find the new one.
