After a recent car-wash my car started mis-firing. The car 97 GLX happened to be due for its 60k KM service. The computer printout confirmed multiple misfires. The dealer solution is $650CDN replacement of the coil, I decided to wait it out. Two days later the problem is gone, they say it will be back with the next car wash.
Any idea's experience with this would be great.

Subject: Re: Oil ChangeI ran conventional oil until 10K then switched over to synthetic. Have been using Valvoline Synthetic, and most recently Mobil One. I don't know about any leaks. I have never added any oil between oil changes. Maybe you have a leak or are burning some lightly?
The oil filter I think is a piece of cake to get off. It's very easy to get to and a lot easier than all VW 4 cyls. where the oil filter is between the oil pan and radiator support! Although, if you have a very large socket, it is recommended to get the filter housing off with this thus not damaging the plastic housing. Sometime in 97 I think, they went to the new cartridge insert. VR6's before this had problems blowing off the spin on oil filters. You can get these inserts on-line from GPR or somewhere. The dealer can charge up to like $20 for these filters where you can get them on-line for less than $10.

Content-Type: text/plainI'm finally getting my wheels in a couple of days now, well at least
ordering them :) I am getting ABT A23's in 17x7.5. I would like to get a
215-40 tire, but do you think that would cause a lot of rubbing problems
compared to a 205-40? If I do get the 215-40, would I have to chop a lot
from the fenders?
Does anyone have any recommendations on good tires in these sizes?I do have H&R spring with Bilstein shocks/struts
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks- ----
