V8's run a maf meter that is attached to the air box.

It has two little heat probes in it DONT TOUCH THEM.
You can clean them with electrical cleaner that leaves no residue.

Check egr valve isnt stuck open allowing exhaust gases in at idle.

Early EBs and NCs also run a MAP. I'd imagine that the vacuum line would run from under the upper inlet which can be a bit hard to see what your reaching for. Also, do what RAPTOR_XR8 says, which will also do lots for your motor.

So is there any good reason as to why ford used it then got rid of them.

Also without it plugged in would it effect the motor/tune.

not realy sure why ford used it, think it was a new system for the first of there SEFI motors using a MAF, proberly needed as many sensors as poisable to get the fuelmixtures/timing corect

maybe lol

They found that there was enough air pressure compensation via ACT and MAF so they heave-ho'd the BAP sensor.
