Well she broke down on me last night after about a fifty mile cruise. Quickly diagnosing a spark failure, I got a lift back to the house and picked up my spare coil and ignition module! Then still no spark I new it was the opti. It was about two years old and should have been changed with the build. Going to the Zone I remembered I had purchased it their and they had one in stock at a different location. Threw my jack, a stand, two buckets, torque wrench, and a few sockets in the truck before heading to the Depot to get one torx head deck screw for the opti disassembly. Upon install and refill of fluids I quickly identified spark!!!! YES!!!!! Then replaced fuses for injectors to bring them back online she awoke with a growl! Going to change the oil tomorrow, sticking with mobil syn 5/30. She's got about six hundred miles on her now!

Hmmmmmm.....I don't know why you bother asking questions, and then ignore or don't even acknowledge the responses.
Quite frankly, I don't care what you do, it's your car. Good luck with it, you're going to need it.

I used the break-in additive. She runs great. Thanks for the help. Now it is hot as hell out from all the bombs going off in the world. O'well, that's why we drive at night!

We should have some nice weather here later this week after NASA fires it's hydrogen rocket out to space. They'll bring the rain!

Happy Birthday too me! Got my inspection today, and passed. Funny thing is after the inspectre drove it into the cool level car bay, and let it sit for a while, it seemed to pick up massive horsepower! YESSSSSSS! Now I have to go to court and show the Judge my inspection receipt and hope he/she's in a good mood. Keep'em happy boys and girls!!!!!
