Second Step: Take dremel tool or hack saw and cut the plunger shaft so its a little less than 1/4 inch long. U can see in the picture how short mine is. Do not make it to short or your CEL will come on.

Third step: Get a soda bottle cap. LOL yes thats right.

Fourth Step: Take tape and wrap it around the Plunger tight so it pushs the shaft in.

Step 5 plug it in and give it a whirl

You may reply now
