[ANT THE KNEE]

wile out for a spirited drive tonight, i noticed that i had a dead miss. i hope that it's a plug and not a coil pack

, that things a $100. i guess it's my fault that it appened, i have plugs to go in it, it's too cold out there though

"sounding like it grew cams." ??? I'm pretty sure most all motors except the 12A and 13B (Mazda RX7) already have cams.

look like i neep another coil pack, WTF? this is the second one, and in the same cyl. i think it's because i was running autolite3922 instead of the 3223's

Plugs can't kill coil packs, did you swap it to another cylinder to test it?

Don't feel so bad ant, I had the yoyo at the gas station put 10 gallons of regular in my car when I asked for 94, now I have to drive around like an idiot with the revs up trying to burn off most of the gas. Oh and can i say no pinging so far, yeah knock sensor's

I know man... you gotta watch those guys like a hawk... I had to stop the pump myself once because I had a "yo-yo" do the same thing. A quarter of a gallon of 87 went in

lol, not as bad what happen to you though

If gas wasn't so cheap here, I'd complain about not be able to pump it ourselves
