First check for new members should always be the plenums, every 75/ZT has them only a few have sunroof's - and dangers are greater than just wet carpets!

I agree with the above plenums as the Op states no sunroof on his car, all our cars should be check each week in my opinion even if you have the fab Jules plenum shield/guard.

The reason is that it can not stop the daily dust and dirt getting in to the plenum chamber, so once we have a few sunny dry or even dry windy days dirt etc collects in the chamber then if we have rain as we always do it them mixes with the dirt and turns to mud, if then the tube is blocked by a leaf what ever or some members have not cut of the closure flaps and they can stick together we get caught out as a mud bung can be created.

That is why I check mine every Sunday morning when I check tyre pressure and all fluids easy 30 minute job after breakfast
