  8. I'm getting so many awards and stuff, I don't know what to do 3 Aug 2025 04:48 dedication awards because I posted three days in a row! That I have participated in the forum more than 47% of all members I'm overwhelmed! It's like grade school soccer all over again!
  9. Air box lid flapper , this is sort of funny 2 Aug 2025 23:35 22 hours ago, mello dude Mine was also doing the clack thing. Sounds like opening a tin can. One day I thought "enough!" I plugged the vacuum line going to the flapper valve and physically ripped out the plastic valve…
