Hmmm well I guess I'll just see how it plays out.

Here is a short not-so-good idle video for everyone's enjoyment

why the hell doesn't my cms 2.5 blower cams sound like that? Is it my STEEDA Catback? That sounds much meaner than mine does night and day difference.

They were properly degreed by a buddy who is a Ford Motor Tech.

Its not tuned yet so maybe its got a little bit more of a rough idle than it will when its tuned which may make it sound meaner.

Does anyone have any ideas as to why my car is throwing those 3 codes I mentioned? Would the car sitting for a while/being jacked up for a while make the fuel level sender stick which would throw the one code?

Alot of it is in the tune. What is your idle rpm set at?

So the the P0190 code went away. Now all thats left is P0460 and P0453. For some reason my little metal flap that is spring loaded in my gas filler neck is stuck and doesn't close. The spring is actually keeping it open. I think this is what is giving me the P0453 FTP code. The flap wasn't broken before I parked my car so I can't think of how that flap would get messed up.

P0460 - FUEL LEVEL SENSOR CIRCUIT MALFUNCTION

Thank you Mr obvious. It wasn't a problem before so I had asked if the car sitting would cause the level sensor to mess up. The little fuel filler neck flap is also an issue
