    No its dead stock, I pulled the plug and I am pretty sure that since I cheaped out and didn't replace the valve stem seal with a brand new one I am getting oil into the combustion chamber. Plug had oil on it. not alot but but enough to cause the problem I think. So back into the motor I go to do it right the second time

    Moral of the story, you can't get away with anything.

    I am still hoping the piston is ok. The plug is not bent or damaged in anyway. I realize that does not preclude damage but compression check was fine. I forget the numbers but they were the very close on the front bank

    Well if got the misfire on #1 taken care of, turned out in I had not tightened the rocker bolt down and it had started backing off. One of those did I really do that moments. Got that all taken care of.

    Then misfire code again, this time on #3 well needed a new coil, the #3 tower actually was rusted. Got a new coil, plugs and plug wires.

    So far so good I have only driven it about 10 miles now with no codes showing and it runs good, got good power feels about right to me.

    So heres to hoping I took care of everything. Tell you what this is about the easiest east west motor I have ever changed the plugs on
