Pull the vaccuum line off, plug it with a golf tee (how ironic!),
and send me $358.75.  Mine has the CE light on whenever it idles
for a few minutes, and it sounds like it has cams when it is idling.
Disconnecting the vaccuum hose made it idle smoothly, so I plug it
whenever I'm not autocrossing.....
