What's up with that new fork? You gonna contact rockauto about it? They'll refund you if you send it back, but make a big stink about having to do that (part is wrong), and they may say to just keep it.

I bought new plug wires this morning. I'll change those and pull the spark plugs to see if any are fouled.

Dude you have absolutely no luck.
Glad that you bought new wires, that's what I was going to suggest.
The guys are right though, it's the nature of owning an older vehicle.
Sucks sometimes, but at least we don't have car payments.

Well somehow my misfire just randomly stopped. Runs like a champ now and I did absolutely nothing to fix it. It just decided to run good. No clue why... However, one of my headers is leaking... "tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick" lol Time to tighten the header bolts again I suppose.

That's really odd.. the missfire thing.

The header leaking.. I dealt with that until I bought locking bolts. lol
