she runs like a striped-ass ape, but definitely running rich and the bl's are still high 142, i'm sure there's probably still a vacuum leak (intake?) but we'll get there. starts a million times better, and more importantly stays running....we'll plug away at it....definitely would feel better without the big black R on my windshield

hmmm, let me see, i replaced the maf, injectors, chip, some vacuum hoses, etc. the biggest difference is the latest addition the injectors and chip, still idles kinda high and the blms are high again after coming down, and today the iac's went up to 175 when the maf pipe blew off in the Home depot parking lot! dismantled my garage door opener to fashion a makeshift screwdriver out of it...Macgyver style
