Did the ignition coil test, idle changed on each coil. I did noticed some dried/burnt oil (crud) on the coils for cylinders 1&6. Cylinder 4, oil was still slick so I'm gonna have to get those seals in the near future. I cleaned and everything up, but I didn't get a chance to check the plugs. I scanned again and didn't have any codes today. I do have a set sitting here since winter that I may just throw in. It has been 70+k miles. Thanks Mike.
Ken, I'll let you know if I end up needing one

It should be the plugs then. When I did that test on mine it was very obvious that one coil was the problem.

I was on my way to work today and I get this huge crack on my windshield,
So I need advice, should I go to the dealership to buy the windshield comes out 300 bucks then I need to pay install.
Or go to a place where they do aftermarket parts and comes out 169 with install?

$169 installed vs. $300 + install? Seems like a no-brainer to me...

I take it you don't have glass coverage from your auto insurance? If yes, they are suppose to replace it with an OEM glass. If you're not picky about aftermarket glass, make sure the company is reputable, good warranty, etc. I had one done on my last car and had to use a wet vac everytime it rained.

Same thing happened to me yesterday morning on my way to work. I didn't bite, I practice self control
Today I reset my tire pressures, washed, vacuumed, conditioned seats, cleaned windows and mirrors, cleaned up my engine and dressed up the tires.

I pulled my fuel pump and upgraded the wiring to the pump to 8 gauge, then I upgraded the pump feed line to a -8 bulkhead with a -10 expander and repurposed the old -6 bulkhead for my fuel return line. When I got my injectors yesterday, I discovered that they upgraded me from 2000cc injectors to 2200cc injectors. 750 hp should be attainable now with this fuel system. I also cleaned out my tank for my water to air system and flushed my radiator.

Got my first recognition at a show today. Even though it seemed more like a participation award because they gave out a lot, it still felt good. It was a good show for a good cause.
