Just got back from a little drive down the interstate, car runs superbly now! And the IATs are now only about 10* above ambient at 70mph.. Haven't gotten on it yet, besides a 3rd gear WOT pull from about 40 to 75. Nothing major, but enough to remind me how good this car sounds....

I am not a sparkplug expert but if you have issues in the next little while I would change out the Bosch and put some NGK's. Just a personal preference.
Happy Motoring

AWESOME!!! Glad to hear she finally runs again!! Just goes to show you how such a simple thing can cause soo many issues and even myself didn't think about the fuel quality until it was mentioned by someone else. If you know the car is going to sit, it would be worth every penny to pour some fuel stabilizer in there.

GREAT!!!! Glad to hear you figured it out!!! I know how it feels when the car is down and you just want to get it running properly again.

I will be changing out the plugs for NGKs here pretty soon. Honestly, I think my car hates those bosch plugs. Stock NGKs last for 79,000 miles and bosch last not even 10 miles and need heavy wire brush cleaning.. I think the car is telling me something...
