Excellent, thanks! And just to follow up. I found a harness-side connector w/pigtail at godaca.com Fits perfect. Soldered it into my harness this evening.

No—I'd never had found it without your help. I don't even know how you look that stuff up!

Dude—thank you! That's the female/sensor side—but found the male connector for it at your link. And I'll check out the EWD.

I'm looking for the connector to the TPS harness on the engine/body harness side. Need it to be in good shape no cracks with pigtail.

Does anyone have a source for this connector—the side that clips into the TPS sensor harness? Otherwise, I'll just have to source one form another LX/LC.

I reset the previous P0171 code and drove around with no issues for a good half hour. The code re-appeared about 35 minutes into the drive but drove fine for the most part with a dead spot in third gear. Arrive at my destination and shut the vehicle off. When I cranked it again, I got the...

Looks like I need to add a fitting in order to actually check the fuel pressure—so I've ordered parts to do a flintknapper-style gauge install—which'll have to wait until the weekend. The LX ran great, though. Was able to drive it a good bit with absolutely no stumbling. I rechecked after the...

Well—the new MAF plug wasn't the fix I was hoping for. It drives fine for the first few seconds then will start to stumble like a cylinder miss—and pressing the accelerator results in the vehicle barely moving. If I turn it off and immediately back on, it drives fine for the first few seconds...

I have no idea—I'll try to check it today.

Thanks, I'll order one today.

Disconnected the battery for a couple hours and used dielectric grease on the MAF plug. No joy. Pins on the plug looked to be in good shape and no visible breaks in the wiring. Leaves me with bad MAF plug (since it's still reading double over what it should be reading). Or maybe injector, or...

Interesting re the connector. I did clean it with some electrical spray...but will try the dielectric grease. Was getting the same readings from my original MAF, so that may very well be the culprit.

I think after the battery disconnect/ECU reset I'll try an OEM fuel filter. New sock on new fuel pump—so I'll wait on that one. But I will say the last fuel pump I put in had a bad piece of fuel line with it. Completely opened up and left me stranded. Was an easy enough fix, though.

Ah. Hadn't tried that yet. The battery's been disconnected quite a bit lately, but not since I installed the MAF. Will give that a shot tomorrow morning.

Also replaced the PCV valve, grommet, and both hoses. All other vacuum hoses look ok. Another thing, I'm getting a MAF reading of 8.5 at idle. Isn't this super-high?
