Recent developments:
- Filled the tank, got 40 miles less on this tank than the previous average (345-360)
- Car has been chugging on take off for some reason, like when you don't give it enough gas and it wants to stall out but shakes a lot.
- P0133 code popped up yesterday driving home from work. It had rain heavily before leaving, started to rain some on the way home, drove it normally until the light came on, granny'd it home. Check the wire, plug was seated properly, wire was routed properly, no bare wire that I could see at all.
- I cleared the code to see if I could get it to come back on driving to work, so far nothing.
- I'm hearing audible valve ticking / chattering when I let off the gas. It's mostly noticeable when the car is in neutral since the engine is under no real load from the gears. Revs up and the rpms fall, engine is quieter and I can hear valves after, and then they are mostly quiet. When it hit certain rpms when idling, I can hear them again. Will try to get a video when I get home if it's not pouring. The valves were adjusted according to spec in the service manual using brand new feeler gauges, adjustment was done with the engine cold. Oil is topped off, sits a hair below the second mark on the dip stick. Maybe Saturday, I'll wake up at the ass crack of dawn (nice and cool) and pull the valve cover off again to make sure they are still in spec. I put them at .008 I & .010 E, I could always tighten them to .007 / .009, but obviously making sure they are still in spec would be a little more important.
I have a piece from P:JDM coming to fit the hose back on the new intake for the AASV
