• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

ST with Check engine light & codes P0107 and C1290 - fixes?

I took the right side engine covers off and I don't think I can get access to the front cylinder spark plug or wire without a lot more work. Looks like the airbox has to come out and more. The parking brake actuator is also right in the way. Left side looks pretty easy.

Go this route then you will have all kinds of room around the engine.

Yeah. Front plug is no fun. But, obviously, they get it done. That air filter is what we call JT’s Air Filter. He’s showing a note in his old store that BajaRon is taking over the manufacturing of it. You can check with Ron on that. The noise level from the engine increased a lot, though. Had one for 10 years. Used earplugs.

The teen ager in me likes that sound :ohyea:
 
Thanks for all the help. Thanks to Snowbelt on the heads-up about noise level, I like quiet. I think I know my limits both on patience and experience and think I will let the Pros handle the spark plug wires. The MAP sensor should be received in a week or so, and hopefully that fixes the problem (good thing it's dreadfully hot this time of year) and at 20K miles, it goes to the dealer for SP wires and maybe timing.

The DEALER will put on another set of (crappy) OEM wires, ask them to put on wires that YOU supply ...ie. a set from BajaRon ..... good luck .... Mike :thumbup:
