glad to hear you got it, its a tight fit but i managed to jam my sausage fingers back there too.

Going to be twice as much fun trying to put it back in and reconnect it. lol

but is it better than taking the intake manifold off? I hope that is your problem.

Man I do too.. Hope it's not the PCM? I watched the computer last night, the bars were way off what they should of been reading, IAC did come down to 37, but went as high as 155 at idle.. We'll see, have to find a place that sells the plugs I need.. Haven't found any yet, found the MAP, $60....

New MAP, new plugs.. Car will start, but has low MAP Voltage.. When running it reads between, -.02 to .03 volts. KB stays at 12 whether at idle or 3 grand.. So I either have a bad MAP ground, or my PCM fried somehow.. My buddy is coming back Monday or Tuesday with a better scanner so he can check the MAP connector for voltage and ground..

i think you are correct with your diagnosis there. Unless you actually have a vacuum problem. Put a gauge on it.

I'll check that too.. Thanks.. Never thought of it, but I doubt it...Here's the plugs I pulled..

oh yea i doubt you do too but it would be good to rule it out.

Well nice thing, if it's PCM, I can get a new one tuned for my VIN for 90 bucks, and the shop that worked on my car can getsomeone to come to my house and tune it up..

Your MAF didn't go bad on ya did it?

Not that I know of.. Like I said earlier the MAP thinks it's at WOT when I amd at idle and just dumping fuel.. I replaced the MAP and plugs today, same problem.. Makes me think bad ground or PCM..

me 2....

After talking to a VERY smart LS1 guy, it appears I have a vacuum leak somewhere.. Either the MAP isn't sealing or another line is unhooked.. I know someone else mentioned this earlier, going to recheck everything tomorrow..

[OIF1VET]

Found my PCV unplugged from the drivers side valve cover.. I still think there is a leak somewhere as the car takes its sweet time returning to idle.. Doesn't seem to be running as rich, but it is still rich, shot a vid of the exhaust and the narrowband/tach so you can see how they react.. I am wondering if my MAP is not completely seated?

Try spraying some carb cleaner around it.
