    Default My Apologies

    Well I found out the problem. And all I can say is sorry to those who I pissed off from my other thread. I do not want to be looked down upon on this site. I've tried pretty hard to be at least "liked" by u guys here on IA, specifically speaking the EF Squad. I didnt mean to bash anyone. Just that when I wrote the last thread it didnt seem that way till I did.

    Yes I always need help and I may continue to. But this time I figured it out for myself. Vacuum lines were t'd off to the MAP Sensor and was giving the car errors, thats y I was complainin of gas mileage and leaky fuel injectors. I never got around to a compression test, still to cold and we dont have a garage...

    My deepest apologies to OGSkinny Mr. [Rhyne] over there. Cuz I have known at least of him, for quite awhile. He did help me way back and I do look up to him. And yes, u guys, I'll bug the hell outta u if my car is at such and such place. I NEED MY RIDE!!! But if u fellaz can accept that, then I'm greatful if not then, well... - reps all over the place for me today.

    Eitherway, thanks for not also bashing me into the ground. IA is my second home and u guys are very informative. Mr. Kidd u owe me $12!!

    You're welcome. Get it dialed in - take it in the direction u want to go. But for NOW, hold off. As I always tell guys that are "green" --- your FIRST mod should be a backup car.

    Get another daily before you do anymore mods. You will thank me later if u follow that advice. It seems like suicide since bolt-ons are cheaper, but SAVE for a back-up car b4 u get into the car game - ESPECIALLY if u wanna tool around in EFs.... they are a test of patience and sometimes your wallet - as u have seen. Good luck - and I will look for you on Cincinatti Street Racing.

    IIRC Blacknoize, you said it was a seal below the cam and there are only 4 of them.
    Also in the thread you posted in MSPi forum you said they were not valve stem seals when i asked that, also there are 16 valve stems seals not 4 fyi.
