    +1 for Stevan.
    On the track, I am fearless.
    If you were as slow as me, you wouldn't be afraid either.

    Did you do all that work before or after the problem developed? Seriously, we had a new tranny put in a truck where I work and the next day it all locked up, transfer case exploded and dropped the driveshaft.

    Just out of curiosity, have you made anyone angry enough to stuff a potato or something like that up your tailpipe? Any codes? How old is your air filter?

    Hope this helps.

    Have you checked the ground wires in the engine bay? There's a set of them connecting to a plastic piece down under the brake booster area.

    Sounds like how the Miata acted when I tried to start it when the air ducting between the throttle body and MAF sensor was not in place. Anyone know how to verify if the MAF is working?
