LOL,the plug pick is the wrong way.Turn your hand alittle so we can see the tips of the plugs better.They look pretty normal from that angle.

yup, so now if the new vband clamp ever shows up I can get it running again and start looking for the vacuum leak. Probably gonna bring it to the local garage and have them do it. They've got one of those smoke/fog type things. $82/hr but they'll find it a hell of a lot faster than I. When that doesn't pan out, lol, i'm gonna have them run a compression test on it to see which valve is bent.

See how positive i'm staying.

SON OF A MOTHER FUCQER yeah, awesome, great, cool, fantastic, wonderful. The god damn UPS facility 3mi down the road from my house is not open on Saturdays. I paid $32 to have the Vband clamp by 5pm on friday. I could have paid $7 to have it by Monday. I will now have it Monday. You have no idea how badly I want to hurt someone right now.

UN-*******-BELIEVABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I work for UPS, and you paid to get it by Friday, and since you didn't, call them up and bitch. You WILL get your money back!! Trust Me! When someone does a "mis-load" which is when the box goes in the wrong trailer, and doesn't make it to you on time they get there *** chewed out because the company has to refund the person if they complain. Good Luck!!

This thread is too damn long. I'm gonna start a new one once I have more info. I am waiting to hear back from Don about having the truck haulled back down there. I'd much rather have him be the only one messing with it than having some local ******* tell me i need to spend $939405868767970 to fix it.
