i always use a magnet just in case | yep, pretty sure that's the one that isn't there. I remember I had the harness loose as well as the air intake thing, but just couldn't get to it. Owell, hasn't cause a problem. Makes sense it's easier w/out the mani though, less risk of breaking something+more room. __________________
