yeah i did, no leaking / seepage. the connections were dry and no gas smells. also the under panel was dry ( dusty even ) and had no gas smell. probably all in my imagination or the computer needs a little time to adjust to a clean filter - like i said the original filter was on there @ 72k miles.

i'll keep track of the mpg and worry about it later if it's still a problem. thanks for the help guys.
