AAP (at least the one near me) also has a very nice scan tool

After months of cheapskate fiddling techniques with the car, the CEL started to come on last Friday. I spent the better part of this weekend checking every sensor, vac line, what have you.

AAP's scan tool revealed multiple cylinder misfires, so I finally broke down and bought a set of wires (they're $60 now - that's what I get for being cheap!).

The car now runs like it just came off the assembly line.

The date stamped on the old wires was........1996!

Don't you love a happy ending?
