Thanks MB DIY sticky
Finally got around to change my plugs and installing grinded TB today. Did DS and was doing number 8 when plug dropped down and lodged by my Mbh headers where they tubes meet/collector is. Had to run out to get a magnet to fish it out. Took 1 1/2 hr to do one side and tb install. Other side was alot faster 45 min to do.
No more erratic idling at start up anymore. Think it had to do with almost all the wires weren't snapped in right by dealer when I had my valve cover redone under warranty. Prior to the valve cover my car was idling fine and not erratic. Took for a drive and feels right now. Want to thank komp55 an Ahmad with the help. Save me alot of $$$ compared to what dealer wanted $900 for

Ngk LFR 7aix plugs part #2309 . Car still had original plugs and weren't to bad getting out with 62,000 miles on them. Think I'm done for now modding the car and maintenance. Still need to install new battery I got for rear one tomorrow.
One thing I notice when I took it for spin really hard, whole nav radio section slid out of the dash. Need to figure why that happened. Maybe some secret compartment from prior owner. He did work for CIA what dealer told me. Looked at the last destinations and were Langley, Reston, NSA off Bw parkway, Arlington by DIA Clarendon address.
