Running better than ever…
Thanks for all of the input. Hopefully this thread will assist someone else in sorting out a similar situation.
So I installed new coils and injectors.
I then ended up with a cylinder 8 misfire. I swapped plugs on 6,and 8. I then ended up with a “random misfire” code.
So today I replaced all the plugs once they came in. Fired it up, and now it’s running better than it ever has as long as I’ve owned it.
So even though the plugs had less than 15,000 miles on them, they were a large portion of the issue.
I think that the long periods of storage without getting it up to high enough heat for any extended periods left a few plugs oil fouled.
So she’s back on the road just in time for snow… and just as I was starting to eye an LR4 😬.
Thanks again, all.
