Hi all,
Recently the K&N intake came disconnected from the manifold on my low mileage 4 L V6. Simple hose clamp reattached, and I'm on my way, but now the revs hit 2500 at 70 mph. I count five gear changes, and the O/D switch works normally (I often switch it off climbing a hill, and yesterday I saw the RPM already at the level they would be if switched off). Does anybody think that an oxygen sensor, or other ECM calibration may have been impacted during the short time the intake tube was loose? A trusted mechanic drove it with with a transmission sensor attached, and didn't see a problem, but I know different -I've driven it for all it's 118,000 miles. Any input would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks,
Scott
 






Pull the battery terminals for 10 min to let the pcm reset and retry
 






Thanks very much, I felt confident that would be the fix, but to no avail. The mechanic thinks it's my imagination, but I'm positive it never used to rev @2500 cruising at 70 mph...
