    I take my previous post back, i was able to find that it is between the intake and i did not see it. I was not aware it was burried that deep in the engine. Looks like third time might be the charm

    I took the intake off again today and regapped all the spark plugs to spec and it seemed to run better but had already been warmed up for the day. The AC control panel had no power. Fantastic. Read that it could just be "the computer", so i will unhook the battery cable tomorrow morning and...

    I hadnt done that, no. But i do have some long, narrow fingers, as well as a V6, which i forgot to mention in the first post. So i can see the PCV valve elbow standing straight up 2 feet away from the car.

    As of this morning its still doing the surging thing. I could be optimistic and say it tried to start better, but went back to its old habits. There were still no codes that came up though, even after taking it for a short drive after it calmed down. The intake needs to be removed to replace...

    All of the old spark plugs i pulled were at 1mm give or take due to wear which is why i chose to go against the hoods recommendation gap them at 1mm. It runs fine after its been warmed up for 5 minutes thoughout the rest of the day. However, in the morning it is just absolutely terrible. It...

    Also, my underhood sticker says 1.29 mm - 1.4 mm or something like that. I did not follow its instructions and instead chose to gap them at 1mm-ish

    I have tried starting it with the MAF disconnected and it runs, but worse. Once it gets up to operating temp it idles perfectly, however is very slow to increase its rpm. I can mash the gas pedal to the floor and it isnt as responsive as it should be. It will get up there, but i havent pushed...

    Ive got a 2004 LS with 225,000 miles. Upon startup almost every day except those few mornings that its been hot this year the car starts with a terrible idle. It revs from 500ish up to around 1,200 to 1,500 every second and the pedal is unresponsive. The only remedy I've found is immediately...
