Yea, that's why I was going lightly. I gently wiped it with a paper towl until it didn't leave any oil on the towl. Figured it was good to go after that and put it in this afternoon. Am looking at paper filters though. Don't think K&N makes paper ones for my truck.

No, if you go paper it is probably cheapest to go with the motorcraft.

Would like to give a final review/impressions of this mod but still waiting to hear from Bill. Hasn't been answering my emails for almost a week.

I think he's really trying to get caught up.
JMHO

Oh I know he probably is. We had just been trading dozen emails for a day or 2 and then they just stopped. Seemed strange. Probably try to give em a call in a day or 2 if I still haven't heard back. Really just want to know what the best/safest way to run the truck is until he finishes tweaking my tunes.

You could probably set the programmer back to the basic settings with pegasus. The canned tunes were not designed to run with a CAI. That would be better than stock.

You mean Fusion? Reset to the default tunes and use one of those?

Oh, I forgot you had a CS with custom tunes.

Since I'm not completely sure what would happen I think you should leave it alone. Fusion and the CS/CTS are still uncharted waters for me.

I do know that Bill is working on getting caught up so it shouldn't be too long.

Hope y'all aren't floating away down there.

Ok, just be sure to relay whatever he tells you so.

Well I was in class when this older guy made the comment "wow, New Braunsfels got 16 inches." San Marcos is the meeting point of the San Marcos river (springfed here straight from the Edwards aquifer so there is little significant change from one storm) but the Blanco river has picked up over 20 miles of creeks and other tributaries. I live right on the river after they meet so I was thinking "OH $#%*!!!!". Then I hauled buns to a stretch of river where I eat lunch and saw that the Blanco was only about 6 inches high. Whew! But the storm yesterday and last night till this morning was crazy.
