Well it ran. This is the car on all fours for the first time in months. I pushed it out of the garage to fill it with fluid and install a brand new group 48 battery.
No ugly mechanical sounds, knocking, tapping,etc. But it is not running on all six cylinders. It seems like an induction leak or crossed plug wires (not really possible on this engine)
No codes. I was really beat when I even pushed it outside and didn't have the energy to keep it up. I'll give it another look tomorrow after work.
