Not sure if it's the cause of my problem, but wondering - just in case - anybody in the K-Town/Ramstein area happen to have a stock coil left over flying around?

Are you getting multiple misfires from certain cylinders?
Just a thought here , check the main coil pack connectors. Check to ensure the spring tension clips in the female connector end are not smashed flat.

If its missing in the upper rpms and all your plugs wires and coil pack connectors are good then try and do a "Case Relearn." I had the same problem and that fixed it.

Nope, cause was just the WBO2, which is shot after all ... I thought the PCM was ignoring the O2 inputs due to the OLSD tune, but it wasn't ... with the O2 signaling lean, the PCM was dumping fuel into the 4 PS cylinders ... replaced it with one of my old NBO2, and it seems to be running fine again, both O2 sensors are pretty close to each other (apart from the LTFT which is probably still adding a bit of fuel to the PS cylinders for now ...)

So, luckily, apart from a day's work, and a dead WBO2, everything is good ...

Wow Garry,
You just made me feel stupid. I think I understood what you just said. I am glad you found out what the problem is though. Can you just do the "Case Relearn" so I feel better?
