hmm thats a good idea.
I sorta remember, but I also remember there is a bracket that I need to install for the box.
but if I just take the filter off and the ATI ACTI what ever that plug is in the filter and just blow dry it I'll try that. if not I'll have to actually remove and replace.

Keith washed his engine bay at the pressure wash car wash. Does this change anything in terms of the water in his element? I mean the engine still runs so not a water lock issue right?

someone suggested putting in some gasline antifreeze and doing a quick run to woodstock and back on the 401. hopefully that'd burn off the water?

Your biggest problem is the water in the element/filter just get it dry. The rest of the engine will get hot enough to vaporize the remaining H2O. Mark you could be correct about the computer but I'm not leaning that way. There was a seperate computer for the NG and I'm not sure if we removed that. Could it be causing problems? Anyway I'm leaning towards the car needing time to adjust. If it was a true CEL it should come on regardless of the driving pattern, meaning it would come on during the first cycle. Perhaps I'm wrong but I think we can have a crack at it when we go to Corey's. How does this weekend sound?

That could work Rob. Let me double check first though.

We will need some carb cleaner or TB cleaner to check for vacuum leaks. This could be a likely culprit and it's easy to check for. One of the vacuum lines could have been damaged when we moved them out of the way to do our soldering. Also a new PCV valve couldn't hurt and isn't to $$$. This may give us an excuse to do a UIM/LIM cleaning. Although we won't be able to check codes. Let me look into that. Meet at my place again??????
