Questions 3 your profile says wet kit....how are you using a wet kit on a returnless style car? *Ryan* Trollin!

I guess it is just the spark blowing out and causing a misfire. I never knew until now what the blinking CEL meant. Simon new- '04 Dodge Dakota 4x4.

And AGAIN, if you have a Y2K HOW are you running a wetkit? HOw big of a shot etc etc. Nitrous is NOT something you put on your car and now just keep pushing bottles thru it!
