Intake Problem....
I bought a Aerospeed short ram intake for my 1997 Del Sol Si. I pulled out the stock piping and there was a senor that was brown in color and about half an inch long. I pulled that out and put the aerospeed intake in and it didnt fit. I read the content of the box and they sent me an intake for a 97 prelude. I put it back in the box and put the stock intake back on, and plugging the sensor back in. I started my car up and I now get a check engine light thats on all the time. I dont know what kind of sensor it is my guess would be an air sensor for the air/fuel mixture, but my del sol manual said the light is a electronic malfuntion, something related to emissions. How do I fix this so the light come off and If I got the another intake and they send me the right one If I got it professionally installed would they be able to fix it? Thanks in advance!

Re: Intake Problem.... (djblackcell)
Search the archives for how to check a CEL. What you have right now is a CEL or Check Engine Light.
As far as getting an intake "professionally installed" I would never pay someone to do a job that easy. Just remove and replace what you have.
If you have any specific questions feel free to get up with me.

just unplug the positive terminal of your battery for about 5 minutes, this is very common on hondas when you're installing air intakes but the sensor will be ok, if the light commes back on you have to buy a new one, because you screw it, but not a big deal.
