Talking Found this

I found this last night dangling loosely in the engine compartment. Is it important?? It didnt seem to be doing much, so I took it out. Seems to be running much better now.

That looks like my pile, well except for the melted bits. Ahhhhh, that's nice! (at least that's what your engine is saying!)

I thought of that. I salvaged all that was servicable, and plan to hawk it on ebay. Some of the rubber hoses I cut up and used to wrap my new wiring harness. In that respect, some of the smog stuff came in handy LOL
