hi sages- yeh watch out for night pirates swiping car parts. seems to be on the upswing. rememba a swine one night stole the plastic grill from my jeep Cherokee. shyster dealer wanted $400 to replace . reminded me of what inspector Renault said at ricks once in Casablanca , im shocked, shocked that gambling is going on here. I was shocked , shocked too that shystering was going on at the dealers. bought a new one from indy parts store for $89 and put it in myself. enough bad attitude. question- rememba on the forum here years ago the sage advice was to disconnect the hot air suction pipe from the manifold to the air intake (on my 92 245) so it would suck cold air into the maf sensor preserving its life. reason I recall was to prevent hot air induction from killing the sensor which costs a ton of gold to replace. is this still sound advice? what do you think arty b and kit g. thanks tons oldduke
