[QUOTE=kenchan;1836806]gasoline dries quickly and usually doesnt leave much other than light smell especially on paint. on the seals it can discolor it, but since you said it rained pretty hard, im sure it washed off. but yah, definitely wash and wax/sealant when you get a chance.
GL with your online school graduation! |

Idk I did go out this morning and tighten the brackets at the throttle body on the passenger side. The ones around the cones are perfect - I think I realized exactly what you said about the softness when I installed them because they are snug but not too tight. On my way to lunch, I tested out some heavy braking in 2nd at 6500 RPM and no rattle. But it was a crazy enough sound yesterday that I'm not completely convinced that my 30 sec fix corrected whatever it was that caused the noise.

Very metallic... higher pitched for sure. Not quite sure why, but that makes me more wary than if it were a lower frequency sound. Are you thinking about something specific?
