    I've got a problem, maybe. When I took my truck in to get it aligned a while ago and they told me I had a bent idler arm. Anyone else ever heard of this happening? They told me it was going to be $350 for them to fix it so I had a good and went on my way, have had no real problems. Alignment sucks again but that's always happened. Can never keep this thing going straight.

    Yeah, I&#39;ve heard the harsh weather windshield fluid has as much as 50% to keep it from freezing. Southern Cali peeps don&#39;t get 10% in theirs.

    You have 3 pulls. I&#39;d run two with it as is then reset it and run the 3rd one. It would be interesting to see if you have more power before or after it learns.

    Well this is what I&#39;ve been up to...


    I decided to change out the Iridiums for some TR55&#39;s for the Showdown and found this. Some of the plugs have oil around the threads and about 2-3 are fine and dandy. I know I use a little oil so I&#39;m guessing the valve stem seals are leaking, but some plugs are white and a little blistered so this concerns me (could be running a tad lean). Now I know why I was running a tenth slower in cooler weather the last time out. Well wish me luck at the Showdown I&#39;m going to need it...Zed

    Damn, that looks like aluminum flame spray on the tips of two of them. You&#39;re not pinging bad are you? Looks like pistons melting down and coating the plugs. I bet you pick up that .1 you were looking for if the engine holds up.
