You shouldn't have needed a new UIM after plugging. However it surely isn't going to hurt.

I once did a UIM at Advance's parking lot. Walked in and saw a Regal NA hood up. Saw the guy walking out with two gallons of water, that's when I knew. I diagnosed it from the sidewalk. He was driving along, went to pass someone and it began misfiring. Seeing the parts store he pulled in and shut it off. All he could find was low coolant and it wouldn't start, but it would turn over. Had him pull the intake tube and it was full of water. One hour later he was driving out of the lot.. lol
That's just amazing! To know what the problem is, give a helping hand right there and then, and get him up and running within an hour! Amazing! I am quite capable of doing many things on a car (ex: rebuild tranny, cam install, clutch job, exhaust work, turbo kit install, Supercharger kit install, Computer tuning, street or dyno), but to be able to do that job in one hr... that's amazing! I think I took two full days to do mine... Granted, I like to take my time and do it reeeaaalllly sloooww the first time, but still, I just can't fathom 1hr. That's skill.


To give myself a little credit... I can install Cams on a K-Series Honda Motor in under 4hrs, while others can take up to a month to get right... Not to mention I was the first to hit 230whp NA, with a factory original Honda K-Series block, power all came from bolt-ons and tuning. Yes, NA 2.0 vs. the NA 3.8 we have in our GPGTs. You can't beat the 3.8 for fuel economy and power in a full size car though. Nothing can... especially not Honda. That's what I love about my '99 GPGT
