The SC is pulling like a freight train again. I don't have a timing light or the fuel pressure gauges. I know,I know, they are on my XMas list.

Anyway, I noticed that cylinder 2 plug that I pulled this am looked unused compared to the others which were normal(light tan,no soot). I had set them on my bench after removal and didn't look at them(duh). Bingo! No fire in #2!

I pulled the injector and put it in a bottle then fired the engine up. It ran for about 30 second and the bottle had barely a dribble in it.

Blew the injector out with air and soaked it in carb cleaner. Reinstalled it and noticed an improvement right away.

Got so thrilled that I got my daughter and we went for a drive in the rain. I put some fresh 94 octane fuel in it and then we jumped on the freeway. By the end of the entrance ramp, I could tell it was back. F-Ya!!

Wifey is happy too because she says I get "*****y" when the car isn't running right.
