I will pull it in the garage and look at it at lunch

Grounds looked fine to me.

200 miles later still running great. Finally gave it some wot pulls this morning and it seems ok. Not really sure what the mechanic meant by they didnt fix anything. Maybe pushing together some connectors was enough.

Finally having fun with this thing. Watching that gas gauge go down as I go LOL this thing eats gas.

I will update this thread of the CEL comes back.

my car is also fond of dinosaur juice but actually at over 400hp it's really not bad at all....... 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle got a combined Avg MPG of 9.33.

Wow! I was already used to it with my jeep getting 14mpg but that's on regular. This premium is a bit higher

Glad to read the issues have been resolved... for now at least. Cars will one day have issues again no matter what you drive......


All we can do is do our best to properly maintain them and not beat them to the ground all the time. Take care of your nice cars...

I do like driving this beast!

I swapped out my exhaust mufflers but I'm afraid to touch anything in the engine bay for my intake I have sitting here. Might wait a few weeks more so I can be sure it was something I touched if it happens again.

These cars aren't all that sensitive when it comes to strapping on new bolt-ons... my 10 hasn't been that fussy at all with all i've done to it... tb, intake to vararam ram air... new Jet Maf, headers etc etc...

I feel you tho. After struggling through what you went through, you just want to enjoy the car as is without any more problems. After you feel the car is stable again, then give the mods a shot again.
