cd player

just kidding, I'd be interested to see how well using the throttle cable to adjust idle instead of the IACV works.. that thing is a pita

as far as blowing the fuses, take a meter and chase wires.. a lot of trial and error It shouldn't make it run weird, I had stupid issues with my radio wiring (I was 17 and had no idea what I was doing) and it never effected startup

check spark, clean throttle body, take off fuel in line and make sure when you turn the key it pumps fuel

I'd LOL so hard if the cd player fixed it hahaha.

I looked at the back of the EGR valve, and there is a hose going from the firewall down behind the intake mani. It is ripped in like 2-3 places and they used 3 hose clamps to clamp the center down and keep it tight. I'm taking it off right now and will get a new hose for it.

This all started while i was driving home, and the thing that threw me off was that plug wire getting hot and burning that spark plug out that i had changed just a week prior. It has always seemed to run a little rich though. But doesn't burn oil.
