    ok, just got back from work, still no sleep from yesterday, picked up some oil, and a magnetic drain plug, will change and go to sleep. will pull the plugs tomorrow and follow as many recommendations as possible. will buy 6 coil pack connectors off ebay. will check/resolder ptu if needed or suggested...i also noticed some insulation on a tube by the intake balance tube or something -again i'm a zero with cars- has melted half of itself off. anyways i'm starting to run on fumes myself and my brain is just not cooperating so i will get with the oil change and pass out.

    This is true.

    But at the end of the day, if the fault is still there and not fixed - the next time you turn on your ecu, it will detect the same error and show up again.

    So you need to find the problem, fix it - then reset your ecu to stop it appearing again.

    go ahead i deserve it. honestly don't even feel bad about it its not like i can't take a beating.

    not trying to turn this into a psychiatry session or something but i was playing my fairlady this song lady d?arbanville by cat stevens with tears just pissing through.... as gay as it might sound, i really wish i could speak to her or hold her or something..
    thought you guys might want to know.. i never ever thought i would one day be so fond of a "car" before, having gone through camaros and such, ..shit, lately even women have a real hard time being meaningful like this to me. anyways, this is is just to say i may be stupid and may not know how to treat her, but i really really love my lady and im ready to learn. and i cant believe 5hrs is all i can sleep after being up for 36.

    Chad, when I sprung you sexing your car that day. You told me that was why you went for the single cannon look. Cause you only had one penis not two :D

    Still dont know why the cannons are so big. A peashooter would have been a better fit. ;)

    Sounds like your passionate

    about your Zed. But like a woman, treat it good and look after it and it won't turn to shit on you lol.
    Now that she's running well, try some preventative maintanence every now and then. Spend some time reading through our very thorough Tech section and you will learn a LOT about little things you can do yourself very cheaply to keep her in good nick.

    I know what you mean about being passionate with your Zed (the love of your life). Having hobbies like these cars can often put other things like other inadequate cars, women, etc on the backburner (wonder why i have trouble keeping G/F's? Answer = Zed No.1) :D:p

    Enjoy your beast. Oh, and although the temptation might be there - don't attempt to have sex with it. :p:zlove:

    so you're telling me you try to **** everything you love? stay away from your family.

    and by the way when i said i could take a beating, it didn't mean i was just going to watch you pound and do nothing. still thanks for your help, honestly, being the first to mention coil pack connectors specifically after ed300zx suggested all hoses and electrical connections to be checked, but either way, right or wrong, thanks for trying.

    and as for the rest calling me a fag/stupid canadians or whatever, its easy to talk shit over internet, but its usually 'cause you're a pussy face to face, and you still haven't realized hollywood/mtv is some make belief shit.

    on another note, i disconnected the negative overnight, flushed oil, changed the filter, changed to an aluminum magnetic drain plug -is it ok, or must i use a copper one?- flushed antifreeze, and started the 300 30times over the course of the day -not 1 after the other- because i heard that this will also clear the ecu's memory (it holds data for last 30 runs?) anyways. so far so good i guess.

    Please Sami_la...

    Take most of what these guys are saying with a grain of salt. For those of us that have been around here a few years know that some of the guys here can generally talk shit - aswell as offer helpful advice.
    So if someone makes a comment about canadians, or having sex with your car - take it in jest. as the internet is a bad communicator of sarcasm/humour at the best of times.

    I'm not sure about the start 30 times thing to clear the error codes because i only use Datascan to clear them, but if disconnect the battery of a night before you go to bed, when you wake up in the morning and re-connect the battery your ECU will have reset itself. So from that point, if you start your car and errors are still there- that means you still have the source of the problem to fix as your ECU is still picking up the error code.
