Clean them and run them. Or send them off to be all fancy "sonic cleaned"

A forum member had the ford master tech cd series on a group of pdf's and online. He emailed me them but I couldn't get them to convert. He was also giving out his access code to the online series lol

I'm doing the eliminator when I install my gears. I don't mind being the guinea pig. Seems to be a no brainer to me. I'll also do a write up (with pics for [MENTION=146035]Jackedup00[/MENTION] because, well, because we know how he likes pics) to help anyone else who may want to tackle a project like this.

Have you ever pulled your intake? I'm wondering if there is a leak on the drivers side. If it's just on one side, it's either a leak on that side of the intake or exhaust leak on the same side. Also, how old are the O2 sensors?

I like pictures because the big words hurt my brain.
