I just removed my OMP 'warm' air filter plus highbeam cooling duct to clean it up a bit and re-insert my highbeam, but things didn't go quite as planned:
I took out the filter, put in the highbeam, and then realized that the filter 'barrel' (thing that covers the filter and provides a hose connector to the outside) doesn't fit with the highbeam in. So I removed it completely, leaving the filter exposed, much like normal cone filters you see everywhere.
Trouble is, the filter then fell out and hit the alternator fan, bruising a few fins on the filter.
Now, my car 'hiccups' at random points on the rpm range while accellerating, but idles flawlessly.
Could this be because the filter is effed-up/clogged/damaged, or did something else go wrong?
Any help is appreciated.
