Good to know! LOL. The plan is to get buzzed not stupid. LOL.

Well boys I cleaned my thottle body yesterday it was caked up with almost 1/8" of black crud. Now my idle issues are almost gone. I am gonna ditch the K&N filter as they and any other oiled filter) are known to be leading causes / contributers to caking on throttle bodies. So I am gonna get myself a AEM Dryflow filter instead.

You're obviously putting on too much oil because I've had no issues with dirt build up every time I've pulled mine off.

KN filters do typically cause build up in the throttle bodies


Mike ill call up the town of stonewall to make sure they put up warning signs near their ditches

Wow!!

You took my advice huh!?

Well there's an update that has been forwarded to Jordan anyway... "heads-up"
(I was going to say nothing and leave it wholly in Jordan's court, but what the hey)

I'm with Dustin ~ it's all about not over-oiling the K&N (it's quite easy to do btw).

Ya I am out at the lake today until Sunday taking care of the rents dog. Next week is my last week of nights. You could swing by my work one night like Jon did and we could load it up and do a quick log during my lunch or coffee breaks (honestly there is not much going on at night so we could spend some time)

Mike - I can make you a new one - get some besser pics and I can doo what ever you would like _ just tell me what you want.

now that you have a sig, you can see the shape of the picture we need, so cropping a picture where your car is in the light (and appears brighter) would help...
