I will take and get the MAF number tomorrow...one thing i did notice was one of the prongs that connect to the MAF did have some corrosion I am going to clean that tomorrow at work also I am going to get it up in the air and clean off the whole oil soaked bottom and find the damn leak. Is there any common leaking issues on these cars that i should look for?

OH and when i disconnect this hose (circled in red in pic below) it starts blowing smoke from a connection under the intake (green arrow pointing) its not connected down there and is covered in oil as well. I cant seem to get it connected.

I was nodding because he is right but LH is better than k-jet. Common would be a leaking rear main seal.

Yea what part of AZ? Most of us are in mesa. Seems the work days happen at my house now. Although any welding work is done over at Mikes.


The houses in your photo remind me of N. mesa a little bit. Or parts of Gilbert
