I'll give them a good look over. I know that they went on in the right order (masking tape and a marker were my friends for that labeling job), but maybe something got messed up with I disconnected them.

I keep putting off new spark plugs (waiting until I can do a Seafoam job late at night to not create all of the smoke when my neighbors can see me doing it. I hear that seafoam will usually force you to replace the plugs within a couple of days.) Anyway, I could just make plans for a seafoam night and get the plugs replaced too, but from my searching, it doesn't sound like that would fix it. Who knows.

Other ideas? I want to get all of my options on the table and tackling the potential sources.

Oh, and since nobody is around me to ever run a scan, would it be worth the $$$ to get an AeroForce Interceptor to not only give me some scanning ability, but also real time data for down the road?

EDIT: I just saw the comment right above this about the Interceptor. LOL. Nothing like posting a question that is already being answered while I type. As for the plug boots, they actually came off pretty easy. I put some special "boot grease" stuff on them when I put them on. I did the normal "grand the boot, not the wire, twist a little and pull" without any issue, but I'll still check them out.
