Hey thanks for adding input as I have followed a lot of your stuff! The engine is up and running with just the pre-cat. Smooth as silk!! I owe a TON to this site and a guy here who went OUT OF HIS WAY to coach me through this. I have not driven it yet, but hope that my 97 does not go into limp mode, will find out soon, from what I have read it looks like starting in 98 security features were added so crossing fingers! I can deal with a check engine light for the time being but nice that you shared resource in Florida if I need it!!!!
