Careful with the bypass valve (AKA BOV) bolts. They'll strip real easy.
I'll check for vacuum leaks and do the carb cleaner when I get a chance today. I just have a prob because I don't know any good mechanics in town very well and most of the time they just throw parts at it and see what happens. I can do that myself and maybe save some labor costs in the process. Does anyone know a good mechanic in town?! I'm open to suggestions. I've already had experience with the BOV bolts taking parts off so I do know that for sure. Thanks again!
