So I got my truck back from my mechanic. The only one I trust to touch my truck. Well he did my spark plugs for me since I had one seized up real bad and I didn’t have the time to. He ran into a problem with number 8 cylinder. Had a new spark plug. He put a new coil pack on it. Listened to all the injectors with a stethoscope. He determined number 8 is intermittent. Probably is clogged up real bad from some debris from when I did my fuel pump or something. Ain’t no telling.
I never could tell it was bad cause the plugs were super freakin bad. But now I got the rough idle and just running real bad. Bad fuel mileage.

Well I got a new injector coming in from the dealership on Wednesday. Would it hurt to drive until then? I got school all the way in Montgomery during the week. Would it be alright till Wednesday??
