Dude, WTF. You think it could be one of the connectors, the one that was kind of loose? I saw a place on line where you could buy the connector pig tails for the Denso injectors.

I am guessing that is possible, I guess if I get frisky I could swap out the main wiring harness with the spare I have?

You could do that as well, i forgot you had that. I would actually like to get a harness, get it cleaned up and re-sheathed and put it in my car.

, i have a whole list of **** on my garage wall that I need to do. It's daunting. Isaac's car is getting tinted as we speak and he has now been bitten by the "I wanna do **** to my car" bug. But at least for his car I can basically rebuild the entire thing with new parts for $1,000.00.

I'll leave my 8 with you while I am in Philly you can tune to your hearts content.

Also you can fix the exhaust leak which has gotten worse.

Ya'll going to the Cupcake Meet 16 in San Antonio? Maybe I'll see ya folks there.

Got the 8 back yesterday after the tranny rebuild. Still shifts a little crazy, but nothing like before, because the computer is calibrating according to driving habits, so saith the tech. Going to bring it back in in 10 days.
Trustworthy people @ A+ Transmission Specialists.

I was out last night getting taunted while I was tuning by random Buick Grand national with huge turbos and slicks. What are the odds? I have never seen one on the street and when I do it's while I am data logging on a fresh tune.
