I need to do that too but I can't let go of fun cars.

Adam, check the plug in the cylinder we installed the new piston in. Remember that we used the old rings so it could be burning oil in that one cylinder. If it is you'll see it on the plug. Pull a couple others to see how they compare to that one.

I really do not feel like pulling the upper intake off to get at it but if I have to then I have to. I have been talking to Shannon and we are leaning towards finding her a new vehicle. I know that I can fix whatever problem occur with the help of you all but I really do not want to deal with the headache. Her car down for as long as it was last time caused me enough headaches as it is. Now ever time I tell Shannon I got something to fix she automatically thinks it is going to take weeks and lots of $$. We need a car that we can count on for years to come with the baby on the way, plus that will keep me sane.

I need to replace the plugs and wires on the truck this weekend and she is thinking it is going to take the entire weekend.:sm_up_there:
