hey i think i found the problem. I sprayed some starter fluid around the driver side intake gasket and it was sucking the fluid up and reving up while i was doing that. So I will change that and hopefully that will do it. Thanks! Here are some pics to show whats going on. http://i431.photobucket.com...
