before you go buy a new one try resoldering that one... I did the same thing when I was putting on my intake and I re soldered it and sealed it back up and it works perfect. Its worth a try anyway...

i don't think the rx7 maf will fit the 94+ dohc wiring harness.

The rx-7 has a VAF doesnt it? I was told to use a 2nd gen RX-7 VAF with my BPT. Do i have to do that or can I rig up the MAF from the mx-3. Sorry im braking away from the topic but while you guys are in the state of mind.

The single cam came from 92-93 in the usa
the dual cam came from 94 and up. They are different sensors.
