Also is the Brazel chip better the the Bank one. Are you saying that with the Banks chip I will have to run Supper unl. There site says that it doesn't need higher octane

The Mass Air Flow Sensor is inside the plastic air filter housing were the 4 or 5 wire connector goes that is the sensor by removing air tube you can gain enough access to spray sensor wire there is enough slack in the harness to leave hooked up

CRC makes an electrical spray that can clean the small wire in the sensor, called mass air flow sensor cleaner available at most auto parts stores

The sensor measures the mount of air entering the engine so the computer can calculate the amount of fuel to give and what happens is crud builds up on the sensor wire and causes a leaner than normal condition

By clearing the computer by disconecting the battery cable the fuel trim tables get reset in the computer and corrects mixture reading

As to the Banks chip all info I have researched it is only a generic tune that is not even worth adding, you could install the Brazel chip only and have a nice improvement with power and gas mileage

Nice looking motorhome. Have you put it on the scales to see how much she weighs? Then pull the the loaded trailer on them & weigh it too. Just a thought from a problem I had with my previous van.

So it seems to me like there is no real need for the chip from Banks. I am probably just going to do the power pack system with the header and pipe and look maybe into doing the chip stuff later
