    stock wires mods are headers intake and tstat. kinda presented itself this morning rather ugly first when i started car the pcm had reset suggesting my battery died over night

    looked around under hood and it looks like the sd hood cowls drip water right on top of my coil pack is this something I should be concerned about.

    I'll probably pick up a new set of wires today and hope it helps also found out I needed a new SC belt tension er so gonna be heading to the jy today to grab one after my doctors visit(thanx for the info about cylinder misfiring with swapped wires I can put something easy back of the list of possible culprits)

    the fact that the pcm went dead is kinda what threw me this morning leading me to believe it might be an electrical problem I took my battery halo and amp grounds off cleaned them all up and reinstalled

    gonna have to check valves as well afterwards is it just the couple bolts on valve cover I need to remove and not a gasket or anything ill have to replace and should pick up before attempting?

    will have a video up by tonight of my valves in motion

    but I was getting several backfires throughout the course of chasing my dogs down this morning along with stuttering I'm leaning towards wires or something as far as my fire components at fault
