it lookes pretty shitty. kinda rusty, and it had, what i thought to be, carbon buildup in the little holes. i cleaned it out with a safety pin, please tell me i didnt ---- it up! my question is, how can i tell if it is still in working condition.

 

anyone?

 

the exhaust path is a pretty hostile environment, you probably didnt F anything up but why would you take a safety pin too it

Put it back in and see if it works...if I had wideband mental telepathy maybe i could connect to your wideband sensor thru the cosmic airwaves and ask it if it was ok, but i cant...sorry

 

thanks for all the great help! i didnt even know i had it, and i havent had it hooked up yet. i was just wondering if they went bad from rough handling(or being stbbed with a safety pin). i guess i'll just have to buy the DIY kit and put it all together and see if it works.

 

or you could sell it to me!

 

thats ok ill try my luck, i see your tryin to wram up for the winter too, i need some heater controls my self.
