Re: Potential Buy 1997 GSX

Logs from last night posted. More rain/thundershowers today so no work done other then going to the store to get a spark plug gap ring, correct socket, and stuff for a coolant flush.

I remembered today that I had taken the cop out to check the spark plugs just prior to the car dieing regularly. And was wondering should I have put dielectric grease or what ever its called on the plugs?

I am planning on stopping back at the auto parts store tomorrow to see of they have some. Some of what I read about cop setups say it helps a lot.

I also noticed last night that the car would stay in I believe its called "open loop... .80" for ever before going back to "closed loop" car ran great in open loop. But as soon as it went to "closed" is when id have the hesitation or fuel issues.

Any rate that's all the update for now.
