Anyone in San Antonio who can help me out with P2070 code fix?

Hey guys...

Looking for a hand in getting the p2070 code fixed. I browsed through the TSB on this and it looks like something I can pull off, but would like a hand especially if there is anyone who's done this before.

I dont have many tools, but it seems as though a socket set is all that is needed. I could be wrong.

Anyway, I can pay some cash or can re pay you in free drinks at a few bars for you and your friends (I am a bartender).

Thanks guys!!

The TSB can be found here:

Its basically the SSV (valve) getting stuck due to carbonation build up so most of the process involves removing the intake (accordion) and getting into there to clean it up. Replacing the SSV is also sometimes necessary to my understanding depending on how bad the problem is.

... I could be completely wrong

yea...

I just dropped it off at iPAC Mazda off Ingram this morning. I'll let you know what they tell me. I'm out of warranty (79k miles) but I'm hoping they at least run a compression test to make sure the engine isnt loosing compression (thus, needs a new motor).
