Quick Hit: What To Do On An Off Day


What do you guys and gals do on an off day? Me, I have to work on my car as my check engine light came on yesterday. I am hoping it is just spark plugs, I have put over 60,000 miles on the car since the last set. Updates may be sporadic due to that and were yesterday because I was helping a friend move all day, and I mean ALL day. Enjoy the day, the off day, and the week Yankees family.

  3. Have you had anybody plug into it and get the diagnostic code? This can be done at virtually any major parts store. (Autozone, Napa, O'Reilly's, etc.) Not sure what you have down there.

  4. Yes it is showing misfires on cylinder 3,4,5. In my experience, not close To a mechanic, multiple misfires is a plug(s). One misfire is a coil, coil pack, equivalent.

    Gas mileage has dropped, running rich, loss of power, etc. check engine light blinks sometimes which also shows misfire.

    Got 60,000 on the plugs I'm gonna change them this afternoon and go from there
