Well after a long debacle, the field rep said that they would replace the injectors and give him his warranty back. They said that if the memory was to be erased again, they would void everything. $3000 worth of injectors and labor done and hopefully that will take care of everything. I guess it will stay stock, they said he couldn't even use an aftermarket air intake. Thanks guys, Shawn.

WOW, I actually for the first time in history feel GOOD getting 14.5 mpg. I've always been in the doghouse as far as mileage goes.

400 miles per tank - that's IT

They are also trying to find out why the tranny doesn't really have a positive shift, just kinda searches.

Check the grounds. If one is loose the tranny will "hunt" for gears.
