Tested the ETC - seemed to be pretty much right on. Without something to accurately test the actual temperature of the coolant independently, it's pretty tough to know exactly whether it's right on or not, but it seemed to be in line with the numbers provided.

BTW what is the proper fully warmed up operating temperature for these cars? I think last time I checked with my scanner it was reading ~96C/205F.


Tested the MAF as well while I was in there - again, it seemed fine. I think the voltage on pin 2 to pin 4 was .178 volts which is about what they say to look for right (0.1-0.2)?


As to the EVAP leak... I replaced the only easily accessible soft line back there. I have a feeling I'm headed for an EVAP system smoke test real soon.
