Imagine the sound of the DeLorean door opening for the first time in Back to the Future. That exact sound, actually.

Fuel Filter had been recently changed, and I took a stethoscope to the injectors. Every one makes a nice, uniform clicking.

I'm about to go on a drive and watch the gauge when it dies. Wish me luck.
Take the cap off before you drive out!!!
