The SharkTuner would show actual temp being used by both LH and EZk, so it would instantly show up the false LH reading, by comparing it to the EZK value.

One other thing I neglected to add to my update... As the car was running I was looking at the sparkplug wires (They are brand new Beru). None of them were fully seated on the plugs. I don't know why I didn't catch this before. They were all flush with the cam covers instead of slightly recessed - probably becasue they are brand new. I could not push them down by hand and had to use a light mallet to tap them home. While I doubt this was the main cause, it could be a contributor.

Yep, that's what I was planning on doing. I even bought a second set of the PEMs, but left them and my STer back in Michigan , so I did it "old skool."
