v6 3.0 camry mass air meter
do you guys think about it. my dad wrecked my moms 91 camry back in 06 and its been sitting in my back yard sence then so tuesday i moved it to mow the grass and i decided to take tha mass air off of it and check a few things out first thing i noticed right away was the diamater of the prot was about 1/2 in bigger all the way around and the plugs matched up to our truck 3.0s so i took it to work and cleaned it off and put it on my truck and started up runs great no more heasitation when giving full throttel. drove it around run way better. do you all think it will mess with anything ive been driving on it for about 3 days now and i filled up on gas today and drove 50 miles with a trialor today and pulled fine i did not come off the full mark till i got back home beforwhen i did that it would be way below the half mark.

for reference, it is called an air-flow meter not mass air meter. though an air-flow meter and mass-air-flow accomplish the same thing, they operate in very different ways.
if it's running, it's prolly fine. I know there are some differences between afm's from different years and models but I don't have the list in front of me. there were some that could interchange, some that couldn't and some that would work if you re-organized the pins in the wiring plug.

subscribed. I want to know if the camry AFM will be an improvement over the stocker.
did you do anything special to install it? can you post some pics? that would be really helpful. thanks for posting dirtpup, this is a very interesting experiment, I'm following closely.

hmmm... interesting... i'm gonna look more into this... although.. if it was a 91 camry v6, it would be a 2.5L ..so if it's the 3.0L for sure then it must be a later model, because they started putting the 3.0L v6 in the camry in 92. do you know for sure that it is the 3.0L v6?

I'm currently talking to some guys in the Camry thread over on ToyotaNation, gathering information for my 3VZFE swap, and they told me their AFM is one of the largest on any older Toyota. In fact, they say that a Supra AFM wouldn't even be beneficial because it is so effective.

i deffentely know its there compared to stock one it does not lag like the stock one does it takes off a lot faster and when you are like in 3 gear and shift into forth on the stock one it would bogg down the new one it keeps on going on down the road. and start hauling a$$ down the road compared to stock.
