air filter fell off
after almost a year of having a check engine light on, just a few weeks ago, I realized that my o2 sensor was bad. the wires on it snapped off, etc ... it had an o2 simulator on it at one point, but yeah... oh well.
so I had bought a new o2 sensor and casper's o2 simulator and it works great. when I had opened my hood to disconnect my battery to reset my ecu, I noticed my air filter fell off my cai ... wtf! ... I don't know how long I've been without an air filter ... could've been anywhere from a day to quite a few weeks ...
edit: oh yeah ... no more cel!

with all that dirt and poo flying up your intake you should at least change your oil.
