so whats the deal?



i havent started the car in about a month, and today when i started it, its beeping, at first i thought that i must have nudged the sensor off the rear housing, but the needle is still moving.



any suggestions?

ill check it out tomorrow, so just cut and replace the wire right?





all i did was take off the UIM and injectors, didnt really touch more than that, i turned the car on several times to check fuel pressure, and i heard the beep assuming that its from the unclipped sensors on the UIM.
