Re: Want to do a tuneup. Suggestions?
I don't know?!
When I find it I fix it, and usually do a whole other bunch of stuff at the same time. IF I were to test before and afterward, and that was the only thing that I had done, I could give a better answer.

Re: Want to do a tuneup. Suggestions?
Ok, I guess I'll never know since I did a bunch of other stuff at the same time, too!
I'll see how she performs tomorrow morning. It's not supposed to get cool tonight (48 degrees), but it'll be a better test than when it's 70.

Re: Want to do a tuneup. Suggestions?
Well, still a little hesitation, but much better than before. Maybe I should try the ECU crush now? anyone have any bad experiences with that?

Re: Want to do a tuneup. Suggestions?
Okay, bringing this thread back from the dead! My battery is dying so I've had the hood open frequently the past few days to jump it while I'm waiting for my new Optima Blue Top to arrive. Anyway, I noticed that my dipstick has continued it's old habit of popping up! I replaced the PCV valve when I did my valve cover gaskets, so now I'm not sure what the issue could be.
Other than it's just being a dipstick

Re: Want to do a tuneup. Suggestions?
^ Makes sense. Also, the dipstick has a little O-ring near the top. If it's gotten very loose, then the dipstick might just be vibrating/wiggling its way up.

I agree, the o-ring wears, ages & loses its ability to stay in place. Get a new o-ring.
