Where is the second connector/pin for OBD?

Haven't touched it. I'll give it a try soon. I completely forgot about this thread - I've been occupied with other projects.

Aaaaand, days ago I was pulling the harness back looking for the STI wire. Completely forgot about your response last year softtouch. I have a weird "check engine" light that comes on and off while idling in the garage, almost to the point of flickering. It can be sporadic enough, and I'm not even sure it's a real issue beyond something electrical. Car runs great. Going to try a KOER test today.

Don't skip over the KOEO. This is an important test of the sensors and also reads out the memory codes.

Once I got a battery terminal sleeve on my new battery's negative post (I've been using a + terminal on there for years), various ground memory codes went away. Beyond that, I simply had the EGR connector not plugged in completely. Its clip broke years ago, but generally hasn't been an issue as long as I actually push it on all the way. An issue that only came about after installing the GT40 tubular intake.

Good now.

On another note, I have a ton of clearance for the A/C hose now - I have like 2" of space from where the insulated A/C line used to rest on the Cobra intake. There's quite a few differences with those intakes, and the tubular one required me to use new vacuum fittings and grind away some of the throttle cable bracket. I'd think that a lot of material was cut off of the intake to make it sit lower, but the base mounting plate still has what appears to be normal material thickness. Maybe shaved just a bit, causing me all kinds of clearance issues. Didn't want to throw in a phenolic spacer.
