    Idle problem...please help

    On second thoughts, watching this video has made me think I've mixed up the the 2 rear gaskets. I think I've replaced the old air bleed gasket (one with the little hole) with a new gasket that actually belongs behind the rear insulator (without the little hole.) Could this be the problem??

    Idle problem...please help

    What's the best way to find if I have a leak? What is the plastic spacer exactly? I thought that's removed for the after market air filter or is that another spacer/gasket?
