Default Another problem

alright, this might get kind of lengthy as i try to explain what happend.

As I had previously posted, I was installing my nitrous guage, opened my bottle to check for leaks, and apparantly my solenoid was stuck open (thank god it happend now when the car was off) And so nitrous shot down into my intake. It sat for over an hour, I turned over the crank a whole bunch of times, and started it.

To my relief the car started fine and didn't idle too bad, however, when I go to give it gas, it wants to die. I'm unplugged my battery for now to try and reset the compter thinking thats what it might be after i turned it over by hand so many times.

What else could it be, i'll be worried if the computer reset doesn't help.

there, that wasn't too bad.

I think you should have been fine just letting it set and evaporate the nos. with the hand turning it might have thrown off the comp *heres hoping the reset works for you [sm=alcoholic.gif] *
