check engine light after batt intake swap
I Finally swapped the battery and intake last night and changed to a cone filter. After I was done I started it up and the beast shut down about 20 seconds later, rechecked everything and tried again. This time I took it for a test drive and my results are check engine light, creeping, sputtering, and sounds like a slight backfire out of the afm.
The only thing I can think of since its so close to the intake now that i need to move the internals of the afm a tooth. But in all the write up about this swap it says nothing about a check engine light or havingto mess with the afm internals.

all right, 2 things:
1) re-trace your splices, and make sure all the wires are correct. i've messed wiring up before, and it brings teh suck
2) do you have a check-engine light right now? if so, do this (p 170-172):
