mine were not tight too except the front drain one.

North Dakota is pretty cool when it comes to getting good gas. I don't change my air filter every other oil change (that would be about every 7000-8000 miles) but change it often.

I'd like some of that 111 please! Then get a tune. I bet the tuner would dial in more timing!!!

Easy way to check, kinda old school. Ive see this method on Bo cats and track hoes. I have a spread sheet with part numbers, costs and such.
