Air filter

[ats at longcoeur.com (Patrick Bureau)]

You got an vaccum leak somewhere, I had that problem and turned out to be
the plastic hose going to the booster was ripped, changed it and solved the
problem

Ain't that Fi/Air Box a great engineering feat.... I solved THAT problem buy
slapping a k&N cone at the front of the car, I will never iopen that box
EVER again : tech note ->

->I put in my K&N air filter the other day and now my car is 
->bogging when I let off the gas after coming to a stop. It 
->then surges back up and back down a couple times until it 
->find the right idle. On my way home from work today I even 
->saw my battery light flash for a split second while it was 
->bogging down, this could be from leaving my lights on (well 
->parking lights at least, thank god the car wasn't on) for 10+ 
->hours while working. I put the filter in since my mechanic 
->didn't have time to throw it in at the end of the day, when 
->putting it in I found it WAY harder to do than my '85 
->cabriolet. There are numerous wires and what-not all over the 
->place holding the top half down, so I had to lift it as far 
->as I could and slip the old one out and replace it with the 
->new one. I started the car and went back under the hood to 
->recheck the clips and make sure everything was running 
->alright, I noticed that a tube at the bottom had slipped out 
->of its hole slightly so I jammed it back into place. I'm 
->worried that I may have un-plugged some other stuff that is 
->not visible and may be causing my surges. Any ideas?
->
-> 
->
->.. but damn, my low end is semi-back (seeing how I blew my 
->exhaust gasket on the manifold, yet another thing to get done 
->when the next paycheck comes in)
