"execration"
1. The act of cursing.
2. A curse.
3. Something that is cursed or loathed.

What?

If your brakes (your wheel shouldn't be squeaking from the brakes) are seized, you'll know it. Calipers may be seized.

:tweak::duh:

Gonna need more info than "it's not running right..." to solve that one. Need new spark plugs? New distributor cap/rotor? Got hamsters instead of an engine? The list could go on forever, but you get my point.

start with an ecu check, vacuum check, basic tune and get an fsm. you might want to do a flush of the coolant system... experiment but use an fsm. It's your other best friend and zilvia is your girlfriend.

If that pipe has holes in it then your car will run like shit, cuz the MAFS is not metering the air thats comin through the holes.

My buddy had ONE vacuum line unplugged and it misfired real bad at idle and ran crappy.

Replace the tube and you should notice a huge differnce
