They leak tested it -- I had some smoke coming out around air pipe coming into the ETM. Sort of frustrating since I spent a lot of time make sure I had that thing lined up on there and cranked down as tight as possible. I hate vacuum leaks -- such a pain to find.
Between the difficult PCV and the ETM locations on these '99s, I think I am going to go with an earlier one next time.

I think the 99 on PCV plugs a lot less than the earliers due to the heater coolant pipe.
The ETM is now a 500 buck fix and you do get 100k out of them .....that's not a huge nut and does replace quite a few components that do go.
