          Here you go, the "translated" version. . .

          He opened the hood to see what the problem could be with his car, as it had started to idle very roughly, and the engine was vibrating. He tried messing with the Mass Air Flow sensor, jiggling the plug and moving the wires around and such, and the car stalled out/shut off. He unplugged the MAF plug, plugged it back in, and restarted the vehicle. The SES light began to come on intermittently, and he tried the same thing, jiggling the wires and connection at the MAF sensor, and the car did the same thing. The only thing he has done to the vehicle so far was to descreen the MAF sensor, which was done quite a while ago, so he has no idea what could be causing his problem.

          Sounds like an OptiSpark problem to me, or maybe it needs plugs and wires. . . Most likely the opti is bad, though. . .

            Opti FTL.

            Or not.

              hehehe. . . That's exactly how I picture the designers at GM creating the plans for the LT1. . . At a sleepover, in the backyard, in a tent late at night, with flashlights. . . lol
