Yeah i'd have to give up my ecode headlights though and I don't want to do that.

Think I'm gonna tackle the oil filter adapter oring next. I hear its a royal pita though. Should take care of all but the rms leak, which can go to hell I'm never changing that pos until I absolutely have too.

Gotta find which parts stores have u-joints....since I have the driveshafts dropped might as well replace them while I am at it. Never done a double cardin so this should be interesting

Junk. Youll get more milage out of the 25 bucks if you spent it on beer.

Geez... i think i gotta be the electrical AND radio guy lmfao
Ok, 18 feet it is. I believe that yes, you are now the electric and radio guy. Congrats.

Seriously, all those things are is a resistor in a pretty package. $2 in parts.. if even that much. It is supposed to fool the ecm but it really doesn't work. Most ecm's will figure the sensor has gone bad and kick an engine light while running in failsafe mode.

Jet chips made a legitimate one but the few posts I've read says they reallly didn't do much. They are no longer made anyway.
