CT,
Idle all of a sudden rough after battery install. I drove 63 miles after install. Then car parked for a few hours. Then drove about 20 miles, idle still not better. I did some grocery shopping and then looked under the hood while still in the parking lot. The technician (after replacing the battery) put the air filter in but didn't close the housing at all. What damage could I have done by driving 80+miles like this? After snapping the housing back together and reclamping, the idle only got slightly better.:eek:
