ive heard that brake cleaner is a good option for cleaning maf's

If there's that much oil I would remove the
plenum and inlet manifold and clean them
with kerosene and a brush then dry with a rag.
How were the condition of your plugs when they
were replaced?

plugs looked good. Kero you reckon? I'll be wiping real well then.

Applied gasket sealant and wiped out the throttle body. For the first time in about 6 weeks the engine is purring, just like it was before I touched it in the first place. While it is a pain in the arse that it went wrong I now can remove an inlet manifold in about 2 minutes.

Do you think the gasket sealant makes a diiference?
Just think of the cost of a Holden technician removing
those manifold's!

I used non curing sealant so it shouldn't be too difficult. I noticed when I put it on, again, that it is very simple not to seat it right. While trying to to align the guide pins the sealant lifted the gasket out of position and broke the seal.

If you ever feel you need more power then make you engine run like **** for a month then fix it. It feels heaps better than i remember. It can accelerate in third gear again!
