I know what will fix your problem....
First off, check the piston return spring. That may have been damaged by the sand. If that's okay, be sure your muffler bearing isn't rattling. If so, replace it, because a rattling muffler bearing can result in a blinker fluid leek. If your car is an automatic, you may want to check the clutch, but if it's a stick, your best bet is to replace the stall converter. Since your car is fuel injected, it's possible you need to adjust your carburetor to compensate for the additional fuel demand caused by the sand porting.
Also, after doing a sandport job, it's important to start using diesel fuel.
Good luck!

It's all in what you're used to, really.
I love the AW format, but some people hate it. I don't much like the format of pretty much every other forum on the web; it's just too much of a pain to navigate.

Powrd1.8T did have some follow up posts to this one-->
See below \/\/
I must say, I'm impressed with the magnitude of this hoax.
There was another good hoaxter that I saw awhile back from some UK forum who had decided to modify his computers cooling system with a hydro cooling system. He sealed up the cpu with silicon & proceeded to fill it up with water-lol. He had most fooled, where as Powrd1.8T fooled no one (hopefully). I'm sure someone has the link to the hydro-cpu one...

Agree 110%....I have seen most auto-enthusiast boards on the web, and not only is AW the best
looking and easiest to navigate, but that "other" forum software is WAY overused. AW owns
