Welcome your new friend Mr. Moose with the Throttle Hang Fix! laugh

Play around with different size holes till you find which one feels the best on your car.

In the future when you clean and re-oil the filter, make sure to:
1. let the filter dry adequately after washing and before oiling,
2. LIGHTLY oil the filter and remove any excess oil. There have been a few instances of oil from the filter contaminating the MAF element.
