Engine is still ticking. I put the stethescope to the injectors and discovered number 1 sounds different from the others. It almost sounds like it has a really slow pulse to it. I bet I have a bad injector. I didn't know that would make an engine eat the fuel like that, though?
Nah, no 302 for me. I need something that can put up with my abuse. 302's are solid engines but I don't know if a 302 would put up with me or not.
What are you doing up so late anyhow? It's bedtime!
