Forgot to add that I also replaced the coil with a new Bosch, correct for the model year.

Thanks to Rick (Wyatt's ride) for coming by on short notice and lending a hand.
Nice little "tune up" Tech Session Ed! Enjoyed doing some wrenching with you. We'll figure out that coil bracket someday!

I'll be checking my records. We may be doing mine soon. Hope you're up for it
