Irritaded and Too Patient: Who can recommend a good mechanic?

Iagree, this person does not seem to know which the closed end of a wrench is. A fuel injected system needs to have an O2 sensor so it can adjust to the Stoichiometric (spelling) mixture needed to make your vehicle run correctly. With out an O2 sensor on it will run in crawl at home mode once the engine reaches temperature. So many sensors are read from the system to get this correct level mentioned above, THE O2 BEING THE MOST IMPORTANT!

Does not sound like timing to me.

See Scott, I HIGHLY RECCOMEND HIM

These comments are very helpful, I contacted Scott and we just need to work out the timing. I drove it yesterday to the muffler shop (with open headers, which I didn't want to do but did anyway) and its running better than it was. Once I get the exhaust on (and the shop I go to, Midas in South Lebanon area) said they can weld the bung in the headers. They are then going to put on a 2 1/2 inch set of duals on with a crossover pipe then Im going to send it over to Scott to tie up any loose ends and final tuning.
