    RPMs drop real low, MIL flashes once. no codes.

    valve cover gaskets!

    the reason they are just phillips screws is cuz they only need enough torque that you can tighten with your hand(i dont remember the number)..cuz i guess overtighting them would be really easy if they gave you the chance to use a socket wrench..and that would squish the gasket making that oil leak.

    RPMs drop real low, MIL flashes once. no codes.

    sometimes when i stomp on it and let go(at a lower speed usually), the RPMs drop lower than 1000. sometimes it even stalls. i thought this was a TPS sensor misadjustment because i had this problem before...and i had a tps code..so i readjusted and it fixed.... so i thought maybe a bumped it...

    im not sure you're understanding..that bracker isn't holding anything big and heavy...it doesnt even need to be bolted in...all its there for is to lock into the flat spot to keep the shaft from turning when you tighten it. ..black87...you said put a torque wrench on it. the problem is not that...

    right it is. but on the rear it is what keeps the center shaft from spinning when tightening the center nut. notice the two small screws stickin up on the sides on the rear...and not on the front. yes, weird situation. but is my hypothesis correct?
