Will do, Mike. BTW, I dropped my Disco off this AM at my local dealer with the expectation they will figure out the leak. When I asked why their proposed fix of installing a new sunroof did not fix the error back in April, they quickly turned it back on me and asked why is it January and I am claiming the same problem. Thank God their system shows the car was in their twice since May on the same matter. I told him that I suspect the drain tubes are plugged or broken. I hope they figure this out.

Regarding the MAFS issue, I received the FedEx confirmation from Tony and it seems my items will be here on the 12th. Will the light go off by itself or will I need to get someone to turn it off?

You will need to have the codes cleared by a local auto parts store after installing the new MAF, other then that you will be set.

Most auto part stores have it, Napa is a big supplier of it in most areas.
If you decide you want to clean up the old engine, buy 2 cans of SeaFoam and shout when you are ready to use it, I'll be glad to walk you thru the process.

You can now get Seafoam in a 1 gallon can! Here in Minnesota, Fleetfarm carries it for about $38.

I sucked it into my Camry intake last night until the exhaust came out clean. Lots of black sooty smoke for about 10 minutes though.

I should be able to tap into that gallon can over and over again for different vehicles including the Disco.

After reading this thread I am considering SeaFoaming my engine. However, it seems to me like sending all these deposits out of you engine and through your catalitic converters could mean a new set of catalitic converters. Damage to the cats is usually not apparent but if they are not "firing" anymore it will result in a CEL coming on. They may also get partially plugged in which case you might feel less top-end power. Has anyone experiencedemissions problemsafter the SeaFoam treatment??
