Re: Okay guys. What could it be?
Oh, something else to add.......are you running a cold-air kit in the fender? If so, does it have an elbow in front of the MAF? I had some problems in the past with a MAC cold-air kit that...

Fuel Cell in the Trunk
How many SN95 owners are running fuel-cells in the trunk? I'm going to put a 10-gallon cell in the spare tire well, and was wondering if fumes inside the car is ever a problem. I have already...

Re: Best way to clean out a gas tank?
Hey Jason,
Cleaning the tank is going to be a pain. The last time I dropped mine, I could not believe the trash floating around in there. Gas stations must be terrible about keeping their tanks...

Re: 302 problems?
