  1. The KISS test: Swap the plugs - does the misfire change places? Swap the wires - does the misfire change places? It could be bad plugs or wires or a combination of both. I did not see where you tried popping some new NGK plugs or wires in before you replaced the coil. I start with two criteria before I replace parts - is it likely that part (testing helps) and is it the cheaper of two parts that it might be. Too bad you're not getting a P030? DTC. Of course that would help track it down.
  2. Thanks for the info. My friend is pulling it out of his 2001 OBW Limited and bringing it down Tuesday for the operation.
  3. I am trying to replace my transmission with a used one. My 2000 OBW automatic transmission type is labeled as: TZ1A4ZCABA-WL 2001 OBW "donor" auto transmission type is labeled as: TZ1A4ZCCBA One letter off (bolded) and no "-WL" from mine. Anyone know if they are interchangeable/compatible? Or where I would look to decode the labels to find out? Could the 8th digit "C" just refer to the year (2001 vs. 2000), a model difference (Base vs. ?) or somehting more ominous? I guess what I am asking is will his FDR (trans gear ratio) work with my rear diff and TCU? How do I find out if they are the same between cars? I want to do a straight plug and play swap without having to spring for a new rear diff as well. -David
