    intake is back on the motor just needs torqued down. along with misc stuff reattached.

    Have to replace the serpentine belt due to this one having ribs missing and being cracked super bad.

    Haha I hope so. Its getting pretty frustrating. I've got it to te point of button up loose ends but I'm gonna pull all the spark plugs and make sure any coolant in the ports/cylinders gets pushed out.

    Well got her out and back on the street no codes thrown but still has a little get up hesitation. I drove it about 25 miles and shut it off. When I turned it back on the damn light was on again UGGHH!!! Took it to my buddies shop and he pulled the codes and the only code I have now is misfire #7 cyl. Kinda funny because the rear o2 sensor is unplugged on the pass side. So once she cools down Im going to pull the plug and wire and see if its maybe a bad wire or a bad plug and if not we'll go deeper into it.

    It doesnt feel like it has a misfire by any means.

    Im about out of hair lol.

    I just checked the wire for continuity and resistance and its good. I just put brand new plugs in for the 3rd time but Im gonna pull it again and check it out. I just put in working injectors as well.

    I am almost to a conclusion of it being something in the cylinder itself.
