well regardless of whether it fixes the problem, it should help with fuel milage fixing the carbon canister vacuum line, and the IAC wont hurt to clean it as its been known in the past to cause problems for people.

nah she will get over it, besides the 4.0 is much more dependable than the 2.9 and the power difference is worth it...... will give about 60 - 80 more HP
