This document is page 4 of 9 of the Ford Motorsport (FMS) F-Series Mass Air Installation Instructions, document number IS-M-9000-T51, dated 1/21/93. It covers Steps 8 through 10 of the mass air flow (MAF) conversion procedure. Step 8 instructs the installer to disconnect the vacuum lines to the vacuum tree, EGR valve, and fuel pressure regulator, with Figure 4 illustrating the vacuum tree location on the upper intake. Step 9 covers disconnecting the EGR tube fitting at the EGR valve sensor; Figure 5 shows the throttle body, EGR valve sensor, and EGR tube. Step 10 instructs loosening and removing the top retaining bolt from the upper intake support bracket (noting it may be necessary to loosen the bottom retaining bolt), with Figure 6 depicting the upper intake support bracket, EGR tube, and valve cover. A reader learns the disassembly sequence for vacuum lines, EGR plumbing, and intake bracketry needed during the speed-density-to-mass-air conversion on Ford F-Series EFI engines. No torque values, part numbers for components, or wiring details appear on this page.
