What's up all,
I am in the process of installing my APS front mount. However when I pick the Core up and move it 180 degrees back and forth I can hear what sounds like small debris sliding around the inside of it.
This IS a used FMIC but I rode in the previous owners' car with it on and it performed fine. Do I need to worry about whatever is in there shooting through the IC piping and up into my throttle?
Any advice is appreciated,

Sigma Pi,
Thanks for the response, but that is what I already did....I would turn it one way and it would fall to one end; then I would turn it upside down and it would fall to the other end but nothing would come out.
Would it be cool for me to take a shop vac to one end and try to blow it out?

P.S. I know this is ghetto and all but I just want to make sure I'm not going to be blowing anything into my engine besides air
