just as an off chance, the starters on the 87's are fairly easy to reach, try giving the starter a good solid rap with a hammer, the reason being the brush's may not be making contact ( but would think you would still hear the bendex engage ) if it then starts, new starter time ( they are cheap and common. The blow of the hammer will cause the brush's to set.

i had an unfair advantage,
1. my MAF did the same thng. 2. I had a spare MAF to test with 3. I Read his other posts on CF about this which was a bit more lengthy, even though it was intersperced with the usual moronic no help replys

much as im sure you dont want to hear this, it sure does sound like the MAF is shot.
you should be able to find one on ebay for a reasonable price, i bought one as a spare for 75.00 a few years ago.

i feel for ya guy, when i first got mine both front shocks needed replaceing, no matter what i tried, i could not get the P/S top nut free, ended up having to take it to a shop, and even with their impact guns, they ended up having to cut it off.
Time to break out the ol dremel

As to more powerfull yes, MSD makes a very nice one 140amp, 12.9 is a tad low but at idle like Bogus said but more reliable reading at 1000 rpm.
On our cars the alternators ( CS series ) Require the battry to be present to complete the circuit ( provides a load to the alt), disconnecting the battery while running and you stand a very good chance of burning out the alternator. Lights: look into the sylvania Silver Stars, a much whiter light, then add those to the clear lens units avail from ecklers, and you will have a very nice light package indeed.
