[QUOTE="white95, post: 1269438, member: 10188"] Does it rain a lot where you live Rich? If so, you need to pull the passenger side of the wiper cowl panel off, remove the oblong shaped-rubber drainage grommet and trim it to where it's always open. If not, it WILL eventually clog up with debris and water WILL enter via the cabin air filter (replace filter if it's any color besides white while you're in there. 15-20$) and can/will wreak havoc. ask me how I know... Oh and get some charge motion delete plates... Then don't tell the tech guys you did it.. Unless thy make you pull your intake.. :evil: [IMG]http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d73/oldawgnewtrikz/MsTang/intakeonground.jpg[/IMG] It allows the runoff from rain water into the cowl panel to drain. It's a uber-design flaw.. TSB repair item and general brain fart by the design team!!! Don't remove it, just trim the "flaps" so that it always flows freely. *esit- you meant the charge motion crap.. Same thing as IMRC on a 4v, they close at low speed to promote torque and open at wot.. Remove them adds throttle response and a few hp. [/QUOTE]
