UPDATE: I would have just edited my previous post but I guess there is a time limit or something....

Well I drove to Home Depot and bought a new nut for the intake stud. I managed to get it on when I got home! My guess is it was a combination of bad threads on the nut and the stud, but with a new nut it was enough to it started. One problem solved.

On the way to Home Depot I watched the temp gauge. As I left home and drove a few blocks it went from cool all the way just up to the red and then it backed down to about 2/3 between average and the red line. I'm guessing that this is just a new sensor causing my temp gauge to behave the way I wanted it do when I did the temp comp board override. The engine doesn't feel like it's getting too hot. Two problems solved.

Now I'm left wondering what the deal is with the brand new Bosch OEM Coolant Temp Sensor that I installed. No matter how long I disconnect the battery for, I still get a 2-2-4 error. My guess is the wiring, or maybe I dropped it before installing it and totally forgot. I don't need to reset the ECU or something when installing a new sensor, do I?

If anyone is still reading this far, I commend you.
