Actually, if you pay more attention to detail than I did, you can use a scanning tool that allows you to watch PID's to verify that your not at the extreme limits. Had I done that, Doc would not have gotten the CEL on the MAF mod on his truck.
So you CAN know before it's too late -- you just have to actually LOOK!

I've seen no info, and what we just told you should make it a less convincing switch. THINK ABOUT IT: that MAF is designed to scale the signal for the full range airflow of a 5.0L, high output engine. Do you really think it's range is going to be even CLOSE to the right range for a 4.0L Ranger SOHC?
What is it exactly that is convincing to you about it?

Which PID is that?

I never said it told catalyst temperature. I said it would tell me if the MAF was out of range and causing a lean or rich condition. You indicated that you needed those conditions to damage the CAT. Hence, if fuel trim is "under control", there would be no catalyst damage from a lean conditions. Q.E.D.

Gosh, you don't read anything I actually type do you, Dave?
I SAID I didn't read the LTFT's above idle when I FIRST did the mod, and missed that it was at the limit. I said that was a MISTAKE and I should have done it. When Doc came back I DID read them, and discovered the reason for his CEL.
You don't let up in the face of facts, do you, lol! If you read my topic on it, you would have known you are running a rabbit trail on this one. I've already answered your questions and challenges, before you posted them. Are you just ANXIOUS to make a negative point, or are you interested in what actually happened?
