im glad that worked! i had somethin that did that a long time ago.i think that is important tho like if thats not sensing in gear the computer is just chillin, with no performance curves. its like the computer is seein <oh where in nuetral we dont need to push>, so u might not be getting the full ummpth.but they only started that in like i think 90 and newer i think? ask john b for more details on this subject im not real clear on the total facts. but congradulations!
