Default 1991 RS Issue

I plan on getting a 91 RS, I was told it studders on acceleration, I was also told to change the Mass Air Flow Sensor, but called the dealer and they say there isn't one on this year, is that true? Also any suggestions on how to fix problem? maybe a sensor or fuel issue, thanks guys, glad to be here.

Studdering on acceleration could be fuel, I would change the fuel filter. It could also be timing. I would do a complete tune up; plugs, filters, wires, and adjust the carb/efi and dizzy. Then adjust the timing. If that doesnt do the tric, atleast you have a tuned up car with inexpensive new parts and need a valve adjustment. Once you have changes all the tune up parts and adjust the timing you will have undoubtedly bought a chiltons manual and have most of the tools on hand to do a valve adjustment, so have fun.

Agreed. You can't just buy a used car and expect to drive it as if it was new from the dealer. Doing your tune up will either fix it or eliminated that possibility.
And next time you post with a problem state what motor you have. That RS had two engine options
