Yep, I did it once about 15 years ago. Took about half a dozen start/stalls before I figured out what was going on.

Don't feel bad.I'm guilty of it as well. Every time the engine fires, it sucks the the VAM door shut and the engine has no air so it shuts off. It only took me a week of tracing wiring before figuring it out.

Now that you have that fix, can you let me know if you're making or have time to make any of the E6 header braces. I PM'd you a few weeks ago. :thumbup:
Projects starting over/under construction. Stay tuned...
