LOL - unfortunately, tuning's been in my past, present, and, no doubt, more
in the future.
I run a system called the Tweecer and have gotten help from some real
powerhouses on the application.
But no success yet tuning it out. That's why we're thinking I may have
either an injector or MAF problem.
A funny sidebar though....
Yesterday as I was getting ready to leave work, I decide to make a change to
the Spark_Adder_Global by knocking a couple degrees out.
Car starts fine.
I pull out of the parking lot onto the street kinda aggressively and DOH!,
the car falls flat on it's face!!
Fortunately I have enuf momentum and with it barely running I pull into the
next available driveway.
Convinced I screwed up the program, I reset it to the original and it's
still barely able to run.
Well, long story short, when I came out of the parking lot hard, my Pro-M
MAF came loose, dangling there in the inner fender (97 Mustang)!
Fortunately it was hanging by a tie-wrap or otherwise the only thing that
would've saved me from running over it would've been the wiring!!
Well, I guess if I had, I'd have to start over with a new MAF and maybe
eliminated that as a source of my problem, LOL
Oh well, tales from the road.....
I may end up getting some new 42s. Seem to be a few sets available right
now.
Thanks Brian.

IF they are Motorsport injectors, then I'd say they are 36# injectors. But
that's if they are Motorsports, which I can't say for sure by the picture.
If they are, they should have a small "Ford" logo on them. Going by the
color of Motorsport injectors you have...
19# - Orange
24# - Blue
30# - Red
36# - Dark Blue/Silver
42# - Lime Green
As others have said, your detonation could be caused by a whole bunch of
things. Tuning appears to be in your future. :-)

Hey guys/gals, newbie here!
I've got a problem on my supercharged 97 Mustang GT.
The car is detonating and, in researching the problem, I realize that the
injectors on the car are not what I was told they were by the seller (Bosch
brand, 38# injectors).
Please help if you can. I am looking to determine:
What brand of injector these are
What size injectors these are
Clues:
"38" scribed on the side of each
Numbers stenciled on them:
2267
17105898
I have a closeup shot of one at:
