Going to the Waterfront last night, car started missing and sputtering real bad. Made it down, made it home. Took the plugs/wires off today, and check these out :bowrofl: ![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Exhaust](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Exhaust) done 011.jpg]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Exhaust](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Exhaust) done 011.jpg) ![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Exhaust](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Exhaust) done 013.jpg]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Exhaust](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Exhaust) done 013.jpg) ![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Exhaust](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Exhaust) done 014.jpg]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Exhaust](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Exhaust) done 014.jpg) I was thinking about why it only did it on one head, and then I realized that when I was taking the stubby exhausts off to finish them, I noticed I forgot to plug in the driver’s side O2 sensor. That time of running the car without the sensor was probably dumping fuel into those cylinders, which also exaplains why I was smelling some fuel as well :mrT: ---

Yea. I’ll tell ya what though, the plug closest to the firewall on the passenger side is near impossible to get to. I was hoping I wouldn’t have to jack the car up and get it from the underside, and I didn’t have to, thankfully. Gloves (no busted knuckles) FTW. ---
