Awesome to hear -- I found mine to be missing the heat shield, and only held on by one bolt.
After getting a shield from the bone yard a adding the extra bolt ( hard as hell to get tight due to the space), I have had it running kinda sorta ok.
Seems like the engine needs to remember how to run right for a few trips but is slowing getting better.
BTW do you know where "Bob's your uncle comes" from?
It is interesting history.

Kinda. Something about a Parliamentary appointment and nepotism or from some song's lyrics. Mother-in-law was born and grew up in London.

I lost CPS on way to work one day and fortunatly i was driving by my sisters house so rolled into their parking spot! WHEW! got a new one but its a nightmare to install ( easy on paper 2 screws and on clip lol the flip was brittle and the locking retainer broke off ON ENGINE SIDE which was horrible but it had rubber seals in to really lock it in and I was able to get it on and its been on a year and still hasnt come loose.. the cables on it are stiff and I think they keep the tension off the plug but that has to be a terrible design sheesh.. why not an easy screw on or something...
