This is a MAJOR reason I do not deal with these crooks. They do not test
their parts before sending them, and if they dont work, "gee sorry, it
worked for us, you must be the stupid one!" Plus they're expensive.

Did you check you're O2 sending unit? It fixed most of my problems! :)
Seriously... I dont know a whole lot about the hydraulic systems in
