Cleaning SAI Valve , Check Engine Light
I cleaned my SAI valve the other day and after about 10 minutes my check engine light came on for the first time. I'll have my local mechanic check my codes on my way home from work, but it would seem likely that I knocked loose some carbon when I cleaned my valve.
Has anyone else done this, or had this same issue after a SAI cleaning.

If you threw codes on both banks then I'd bet you didn't connect the little pigtail hose that comes off (whether you know it or not) when you pull the hose off the SAI check valve. Look for that first.
