Unplugged swirl flap motor and put a 2.2k resistor to simulate operation. So far so good with no limp mode.


Unplugged coolant level sensor and put a 470 ohm resistor to simulate combination of coolant and washer fluid levels...so far so good.


Many videos of removing swirl flap system altogether (mostly on the 5 cyl CDI and 4 cyl CDI). That may be the next step, but getting rid of limp mode is huge.
