RE: CLAMPS

I just did a full tune up on my car as well. I changed wire, plugs, oil, filter, fuel filter, cap, rotor, front o2 sensor, entire pcv system, tanked the intake manifold at a machine shop. I put it all back together on Monday. The car runs a little smoother, but I really didn't have a problem with the car previously. I would suggest anyone who has a second car to drive to go to a machine shop with your intake manifold and have it tanked. For $20 it was like brand new and it only took overnight. Considering I did the timing belt about 13k miles ago, I think I'll only need to do oil changes for the next 3-4 years

I wish I did that too. Never even thought of dipping it. I cleaned it myself with throttlebody cleaner etc., I'm sure it looked nothing like yours did after being dunked....and I have a tank at work! ugh.
