    So I just changed my plugs and wires and...

    I'm just a little curious, I just pulled my plugs for the first time since I bought the car, nd the tips were a nice white color, which means I'm running lean. I thought that the EFI was supposed to compensate for the Air/Fuel mixture, am I wrong in thinking this? I have a Short Ram intake, which is probably what's causing me to run lean. Any idea's? And no, I'm not getting any engine codes.

    Did you reset the computer since you installed the intake?

    WHITE! How am I supposed to reset the CPU? Guess I'll start searching. Yes, I connected the stock vacuum line to the intake.

    Edit, just read how to reset the CPU, I'll go do that real quick.
