So the 7m's have totally different MAF housings? I must look this up..... Also I found that my valve seals might be gone....I came to this conclusion when I cleaned the exes dirt and gas from the intake manifold. It dried and I noticed what appeared to be a lot of carbon build up inside, looked exactly like the exhaust valves on my 4g63 head......sooo if the head gaskets gone (will find out then I pull of the exhaust mani) I guess a head tear down will be in order.

Quickly started the throttle body tonight...... what a PITA, worked on it for the length of a top gear episode and said screw it Im off to bed!
once again not at all happy with it and I didnt even start on the outside of the TB cuz there to many small spots I wouldnt be able to spiffy up so itd just look like crap.

Got everything back together today and went to start the car..........it burst into flames!
 I would have took pictures if I hadn't been so busy putting it out, have no clue what went wrong never had something like this happen to me before at all!

Ya it was a fuel leak, I had a couple injector seals blow out. The fuel problems fixed and my cars up and running but I think I just confirmed my suspicion that I have a cylinder head problem.........piss me off. got to do a leak down and compression test first but I'm sure my head gaskets gone or the heads warped.

Now, those head gaskets seem to blow every 60k miles. I don't know why. I had to have my block shaved on mine, but that is unusual too.
