As long as I'm tearing into my engine anyway, might as well replace the various input sensors for speed density and reset the computer!

Disconnect the negative battery cable and leave it disconnected for at least 30 minutes.

This erases all the memory in the computor and forces it to relearn what is "normal" for all of it's various inputs and what not. Since not all sensors are created equal, it is a good idea to do this when replacing sensors.
