Default MAF swap in Asheville

So im dealing with some odd stumbling under light acceleration and I want to eliminate the MAF as a culprit... If anyone is local to the Asheville area and willing to donate their MAF for about an hour Id appreciate it! It seems a rebuild runs in the 4-500 dollar range if mine needs it? Thanks for any help/advice!

EDIT: '85 32v 5 spd.

My rebuilds are $315 and in stock.
Happy to lend you a loner to try - all you will be out is the shipping.

Hmm cant say no to that! Happy to pay shipping. maybe it can be sent with the rest of my goodies? although with how fast you get things out, i might already be late on that!

m750rider (Bob) is in Asheville. It looks like Roger has you taken care of (as usual) on the MAF but it might be good to reach out to Bob and get to know another local owner.
