I'll probably do that now. I actually bought the K&N about 12 years ago for the convenience of not having to buy filters all the time, not for horsepower. I never really believed it increased...

nestorlugo, Blackstone has been the best one I've come across so far. They send you a free kit to take your sample and some simple instructions. The basic oil analysis is $25, but you can get the...

Blackstone Labs oil analysis

I can't open the picture for some reason, but have you changed your oil recently? If so, I would check to make sure the old gasket it completely off.

I'm going to try that. I did a little more research and found that a coil may seem ok but it only takes a slight variance in resistance to cause a problem. That means I get to buy a new toy, or...

Thanks. I'll get it all put back together tomorrow and check the ecm. If it looks good, I'll crank her up. If ecm is toasted, off it goes to be repaired, I'm ready to have my Max back on the road.

Dannydifalco,

How is that ICAV you bought off of eBay doing? I need to get one and was wondering how it was holding up. I love that price, I can get one for $167 with a year warranty though.
