Hi Blacksheep,
Where did you get the headrests, except for the wheels our Monte's look very much alike. Way cool.

morning all, first day in a while where I have nothing planned. Usually on my day off from work I have to go to school, but that's finally no longer the case since my school schedule changed. I'd like to detail the monte, but with all the pollen here its hardly worth it.

Good morning everyone.

Checking in from Mexico. I return Friday, just in time for the W-Body/GM 3800 Gathering in Michigan this Saturday. Got most of that first of the year "spring detailing" done on the car this past Saturday but I'm going to be busting my butt extra early Saturday morning before the show to get the car washed. First show of the year and just four more days!

Good Morning: Just got back from my buddies garage. The Cobalt has a miss in it. Changed to plugs and it still shows a miss. Now he said lets take the easy way out. Try running some injector cleaner thru it for a few days. And see if that helps. If not then we'll change the injector. Now I like a guy like him. Some shop might have said. Ok were going to replace that injector! Why if its just a dirty one ??? So I bought some clear and added some freah gas and we'll see what happens. I know for a fact that stuff works. My wifes Thunderbird was running rough one summer back in Mi. And I bought some injector cleaner and drove it down the freeway ( i 94) from Metro airport to Ann Arbor. Then on the way back It just started to run better. You could actually feel the difference. So thats why I want to give this a few days 1st. Ok got to get outside and help my wife with some yeard work. Oh joy. TTYL

hey rick, you sure it's not a plug wire or a coil pack? my truck was plauged with a missfire when i got it, would burn up a new plug in 2 weeks. turned out the coil pack was shot.
