I dug in deeper. Found a couple interesting things. Quick back story first though. When I installed my injectors and was tuning them, I noticed that #1 wouldnt take below a certain ms before it would mis fire. This was when I was trying to lean the idle out. It was only on pure pump gas that it would happen and since I run 100% on e85, I didnt really care.

Anyways, I decided to pull the plugs to see what they looked like. Well they looked good but were gapped to .032".... that's not where I set them. So that was problem one. Problem 2 was on cylinder 1 spark plug boot. Where it went into the coil. The spring in the boot was all messed up and not touching the coil. So I got that fixed and it touching now. This seems like the reason I was having issues with #1 before.

Then I went to take it for another test drive and had someone steal my car...

Anyways, looks like he just went for a quick joyride. Got the car back in one piece. He said all the issues have been resolved. Runs great. 2 small things add up to 1 big issue....
