The 5 stomp test shows a 1222 fault code and Bentley says this is an "oxygen sensor too lean" error. The light is not constant and comes and goes. When the light is on, the engine stumbles and has no power. Runs well on the open road....The current O2 sensor has about 70,000 miles on it.> I have the same car, 5 speed with only 97,000 miles, and believe the O2 sensor is suppose to be replaced every 50,000 miles. Since you say your current one has "70,000 miles on it", replace it! Brewster __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Check the connector in the harness between the engine and the chassis. Also check the connectors on the engine side of that harness.

If you had any of the intake off for the water pump R&R, go back and make sure it all went together properly.

Only the fan clutch has to come off along with the fan shroud. But I agree on the vacuum hose or intake leak. But the car wouldn't idle right. Easy to find: spray some carb cleaner or throttle body cleaner on the hoses and intake and check for RPM increase.

There are installation instructions on the EBA CD (01.29.9.0.030.545) and specific kits to do the seats (leather, vinyl or cloth & sport vs. std) as well as the harness under the floor carpets and relay / fuse to add to the fusebox. I did this on my E30 touring, although I simply changed my cloth seats for factory heated leather sport seats I found at a yard. Taking your seats apart IS possible to install the kit. I would suggest you buy the EBA CD and study this, based on your ability or find a seat repair fellow to install the heating element parts.
