Bonehead move - ran car without air filter
Hey, so, long story short, I ran the car on idle (no driving) for about 10 minutes with no air filter and the top half air filter housing ajar. What kind of potential damage am I looking at?
I noticed before removing the old filter that there was a ton of crud on the bottom of the housing (around where the air comes in). Thankfully, all the crud appears to still be there.
Car is throwing code P0463 (fuel level sensor A circuit high). May be unrelated as I've been doing electrical work.
Also "permanent voltage supply fault", "fuel level input error"
Anything I should do before reinstalling a new filter?
Also the metal latch on the left side of the air filter housing below where the intake connects is missing. I just have a plastic lever. Do I need to replace the whole housing? ($320.. ouch).
