what i did was take the sensor out of the rubber boot.... if you were to stick it in the hole on the intake it would be swallowed, so i wrapped it in electrical tape and if fits OK now... do you think that that would not be sealed up enough to make it create a large vaccum leak??

Its hard to say, but snug is good... On the f-body cars, that sensor is a bitch to get to so I made sure it was nice and snug with that "L" bracket before I put the intake on.
I know without the bracket, i could wiggle/shake the sensor pretty easily.

 

and it ran without the bracket with no ill effects??

 

I did not try it... I put the bracket on, then put the intake on.
Im sure if you think it might be leaking, you can always try and sneak some kind of sealant back there while on yoru finger...

I know they mentioned before about the temp sensor... Is your car warming up at all?? I guess a better way to put it is, does it show it warming up on the guage?

 

are u talking about the sensor on the back of the intake minifold were the little vacuum line is or the sensor before the throttle body or the little two wire sensor b/f the throttlebody isn't that the iat sensor oh yea this is the guy helping mike build his car hit me back

 

ok here is what u do to fix it put the key in the switch turn it to on poss. get out of car walk around it four times to the right call the local towing company and take it to your local honda rice burnner club and let them fix it cause i think u f-ed it the hell up

 

Did you register just to say that?

 

hey dumbass this is josh just got me an account on here man will we ever get the car going maybe to day i brain stormed last night at work come up with a couple of good ideas on what it could be

 

well hell yea i registered to say that lol u have any ideas how i can get this car going

 

you are a god damned dumb ***..... HAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHHAA.... where is the damn 3rd gen, cause i see you found a mullet?!?!?!?

 

i just cranked it this morning and drove it up the road... bitch idle GREAT on startup, but will not find idle for **** after initial run, just like last night. we need to **** with that map sensor as well.

 

Are these wires new? Are they pushed on all the way? Are the plugs too hot? What kind of plugs are you running?

 

I was talking about the sensor on the back of the intake. That is the MAP. The MAF is located in between the TB and the air filter.

 

yea i thought that was the map back there is the sensor between the maf and the throtle boby the iat???????
