That's good about getting a title for it. We just went through somethings trying to get some of our trailers tagged but the titles were all screwed up.

About the car, I replaced the MAF with another one from Advance but this time I put a Cardone rather than a BWD. The car seems to be a litte better but still idles terrible at idle.

I'm guessing if the intake is sucking air, that would cause it to have a rough idle? When spraying the carb cleaner around it, I guess it's just sucking it in and making the motor run different as long as you don't spray too much.

When we did the LIM, yes we used the GM aluminum gaskets and put new o-rings on the injectors.

Just wondering, if the o-rings were bad on the injectors, would that cause it suck air and act as if it has a intake leak? I just don't see how the intake would be sucking air or be bad if it was done right by the instuctions as we followed.

I guess I could always get some o-rings and change that first before doing the intake?

Also, I check all the vacuum lines and didn't find anything wrong. Even the one on the back side seemed fine. I did mess it up some when I pulled it off to look at it, but for the time being, I taped it up real good and fixed it for now. The car didn't run any worse so I figured I'd wait and fix it when I decided to do it.
