      Well, that sucks for them I guess. Once again, without any political threads, they have little to dislike others about, or starts wars/smear campaigns over. What are they going to do? Start a smear campaign because they don't like someone's choice of quad rail? Or muzzle attachment? When it gets simplified to that level, you have a mere fraction of the problems. It's really that simple. Just go to thehighroad.org right now and see if you can even find a single "heated" thr...

      I hear what you're saying CK. Problem is, unlike the H.R., AK Forum, and most others, here people are allowed to get away with personal insults and attacks on other people, even when totally uncalled for.

      I'm sorry for your pain. Remember that she is fine and you will see her again. Great site about NDE, glimpses of the other side. http://www.nderf.org/NDERF_NDEs.htm

      Took me a minute to figure out what CVPI was.

      Keep an eye on those Ford mod motors, some were known to have intake manifold problems. My buddy has had two of them and they both would ping like crazy too, never could figure out why.

    3. paprotective

      2003 and up has the newer intake with aluminum crossover.. my 2000 didn't and the manifold went at like 236,000 miles..

      My 97 Townie's manifold was replaced with the fixed one some time ago.

      Dark blue still looks like a police car.

      Dark gray with tint & black wheels just looks tough.

       

      Spooky. Especially with a black grill.

      Toss the resonators, & run flowmasters. & of course, tint the tail lights somke.

      Have you checked the resistance on your wires?

       

      Cheap wires fail quickly.

       

      Also, in the fall, with all the weather & drastic temperature changes, brass contacts tend to corrode causing open circuits at times.

       

      You may want to clean your wire's contacts with a .22's wire brush & apply dielectric grease in them.

      Also the same to the distributer contacts.

       

      also check for corrosion on fuse contacts, & battery cables, terminals ...

    3. Paulyski

      Paulyski

      & connecters.

       

      If some cars aren't getting enough juice they misfire.

       

      German brass seems the quickest to corrode in my experience.

       

      Also, if post-90s car's PCMs are failing, they can cause a misfire & not trigger a check engine light.

      Salvage yards sell them for $40.00, but that's not likely the cause. Just distant.

       

      Good luck.

       

      I hate cars...

      But I love them too... (when they run)
