Re: MitsuStyle Fall Cruise 2013 - Oct 5-6th - Rochester, MN
Epic weekend as always! Thanks to everyone for coming and thanks to everyone that stopped for the troubleshooting session on the side of the road. First valve cover pull on a gravel road on a cruise? I think so! Once the car was cool and we had inspected injectors, spark plugs, and what we though thought was the entirety of the engine harness we noticed that the exhaust side mivec plug was loose....I misread the 'misfire' code I pulled off of the ECU and it was actually a PO365 "Exhaust camshaft position sensor circuit" doh! I had left the exhaust manifold heat shield off and I think it got too hot and she worked her way loose.
I had to pull the valve cover again sunday morning because the gasket had gotten kinked as I basically threw in the towel on the side of the road. That sealed things up and in true DSM fashion, one zip tie secured the plug and beaterX saw boost all the way home
