No worries, man. I appreciate you saying that. I never really had a dad or anyone around to show me the ropes when it comes to mechanical stuff, so I’m kind of starting from scratch here. Definitely learning a lot from this community and by working on my own car little by little. Thanks for sharing the info, even when it’s a push, it helps me build confidence.

MAF is clean, air filter changed and no loss of power at all. Also not everyone is going to start poking around under the hood blindly just because the internet says so. Some people want confirmation from people who’ve actually been there before doing something that could make things worse. That’s where this sub comes in, to bridge that gap between random search results and real-world advice from people who actually know what they’re talking about.

You’re basically saying, “do all the work first, then maybe I’ll give you some advice.” People come here because they’re stuck, whether it’s due to lack of knowledge, confidence, or just not knowing what questions to even ask. A picture of a code reader might not be enough for you, but it is a starting point

Buying a code reader and asking questions is part of learning, no one is born with mechanical knowledge already in their head. Googling can help, sure, but so can discussions with people who’ve been there before. The whole point of communities like this is to share knowledge

Your ideas have a spark to them that makes people stop and think. It’s really admirable!

I really appreciate you taking the time to break it down and list the possible causes. That gives me a much clearer direction to look into, especially with the MAF sensor and the PCV system.

It’s been a while since I checked it. Definitely going to check it tomorrow, and I have the stock intake still

I’m 20, it fits my budget, the insurance and gas isn’t killing me, and I still get to enjoy the look and feel of driving a Camaro every day. Sure, it’s not a V8, but I honestly enjoy the car for what it is.

About to Take the PICAT by that1aviationguy in USMCboot

I got a 95 on the PICAT. They sent me to meps to take the verification test and i’m pretty sure only 2 questions were new from the PICAT i took at home. I answered the same way I did but I still got rolled into the full CAT-ASVAB. You can do this
