Unhappy Uggh !!

I swear I have seen that note about 104 Octane Boost before - that came from Install University, right ??

In any case, the simplest solution is usually correct.

I'd guess that you will find the plugs to be the culprit , but it might not be a bad idea to confirm that all the coil packs are working properly.

I guess the best way is w/ an multimeter, as the only other way I know to check for spark is by pulling the plug wires & watching for a spark as the engine is being cranked.

The problem w/ this method is that since you have to get in there in the first place to get to the wires, why not go the rest of the way & pull the plugs for a look-see ?


Best of luck !!

Britt

P.S. I paid $ 100.00 to have mine changed, so you got a better deal - jerk !!

J/K !!

Yeah, it's a good deal. I could do it myself, but from my point of view, it's worth the $80 not to have to scrape my hands and deal with all the crap.
