Still trying to hunt down a demon in the mill. A little stumble on cold acceleration. Checked the throttle body and cleaned it. Went to check the spark plugs and ripped a wire right outta the boot. Yes, I was holding the boot, not the wire. So now I'm trying to buy wires for the Linkin. Auto Zone has them for $90 but across town, so I'm having them transferred to my closest store. Called Pep Boys to see what they have and the said special order $112. Just for S & G's I changed the request to 96-98 Cobra.....still special order, but only $101. Sounds a bit dumb to ask, but aren't these the same motors? Would the Cobra wires fit? Why $10 less than the Mark wires?
To top this off, while I was pulling the intake tube, I lost the seal inside the plug for the intake air temp sensor. Looked for 20 or 30 minutes with no luck. Got off the motor and looked underneath just in case it fell to the ground and noticed a puddle under the car. Finger sniff revealed fuel. The puddle was right next to the passenger front tire. So I'm thinking fuel filter. Went to take the passenger tire and can't find my locking lug key. Damn the bad luck I had today. Plug wires come in tomorrow, then I have to wait until Monday to go to FLM service dept. They have a full spectrum of master keys. They will remove them for me and I'll just buy new lugs non licking type.
