LMAO, I think my o2 sensor must also be going out
, because it is still all willy nilly
But the car drives great now....... And yes, the stumble/shudder could have been from either the filter or drive axel, [changed 2 variables at once
] I will Definitely have to open that drive shaft up to see if we can make some conclusions about it.
When it happened ---- It felt like the spark not jumping the gap (as when I had bad coils) but the AFR did not depict that.... and as I said before, I knew the half shaft (tripod CV joint) was sloppy before, and now I have the $ to fix it, so I did.
My conclusion: the culprit was either the intake filter, or CV joint... But I don't think that the filter was that bad, otherwise It would start pulling oil from the compressor seal....
Maybe I have stumbled upon another MSP phenomenon ?
The manual was the service manual for the protege/MSP/MP5
