Yes it is possible I would check another auto parts store first though.

Yeah I have the WINTER mode. I never use it. I actually turned it on accidently once. Thought I really broke something because my accel. was so slow with that mode on!

PS -- we actually got 5 inches last night and the snow plows here suck! Still haven't done our street

5 inches snow, really? it fell down under zero last night, maybe the same cold air mass from NE.

Same here in FLA today. I watched the temp drop 20 degrees today in 5 minutes with the cold front moving in. It is supposed to drop to like mid 30's here tonight.

I'm in TX. It's said the summer is pretty hot though.
FLA has very beautiful beaches, I like them.
Now I could say the accelerator is more sensitive than before the cleaning of I.A.C.

Hi Tech, is there any difference among the FPRs in different years, from 2000-2004?

I believe they are the same. You could go to myswedishparts.com and search for the years and look at them to see.

I did the IAC clean the other day and mine was completely clean. hardly any crap came out at all. I'm trying to solve a low idle problem I've been having.

It's completely clean? then your hand wouldn't get dirty, sounds good.
