Opps, too late, set it back to stock this morning before I left work to
go to home. Forgot to mention, it did throw a code the first time it
did happen, a P-0700. It read as some informational code that i never
looked into any further. I forgot about it. I didn't do it on the way
home. about 4 red lights in 2.5 miles.
