Nearly complete clog of carbon in this barb. p0401 code from ODB, check engine light on.

These damn things. They are pretty easy to clean out if you let them soak (I use PB Blaster penetrant, but I suppose a better mechanic would use carb cleaner). Reamed everything out with metal tools and got it close to new.

Anyway, car was running rough, no power. All good now.
