Would you care to share the wire colors or pin # assignments where a guy could wire in a few diodes to eliminate the MAF? :cool:

I had a '98.4 12-valve, 4x4, QC/LB, NV4500, 3.55's, etc - sold it 3 years ago. I miss that truck - a lot.

A turbo OM606 might only last 30 seconds in the right hands and under certain conditions. That goes for any engine, though.
