As you can see I have a 2001 SE1 Grand Am. I just installed a CAI for it, my first one ever!
When I go to start the car I have to hold the key in start a little bit longer now, is this normal?
Is it normal to hear the pistons moving as if they were out in the open and not inside the engine at 2K + rpms?
Also, I went to autozone and got the civic intake but when I ask for a K&N cone they only had one and the opening was 3 1/4 which means it was bigger then the pipe, so I was forced to get a cone that goes with the intake which I heard suck?
Where and what model K&N cone do I need?
Thanks
Update:
I went and washed my car just a few mins ago and thought I check under the hood before leaving, well there was some water drops on the intake pipe and I could se drops on top of the filter as well. I'm not sure if any managed to get the sides of the cone wet, what do you guys think?
I also had problems starting my car and the problem was it simple wouldnt start. I had to try 3 times with the 3rd time having my foot somewhat on the gas for it to start.
Any ideas what the problem is? At first I thought it was the fuel filter which Im going to change next week but Id like to hear some other ideas as well.
Thanks again
