Oh I am completely addicted to cars ever since I saw Fast and Furious when it came out. I'm not really into the street racing side of things, but there is something about taking a piece of machinery apart and modifying it. And when it turns over and everything works-priceless! The mechanical...

You were both right. I had a vacuum hose loose (found the leak using the water technique, thanks for the tip) and the engine took a few start-ups before the ECM relearned. Thanks for the quick reply! It's running smooth.

I have heard that the stock intake gasket for the Corolla can fail/leak, leading to erratic RPM. The revised gasket (orange in color, not black) fixes this problem. I have never had a problem with my own stock gasket but, in order to be preventative, I ordered the revised gasket. After...
