Yes, usually a 300 series code.......


I had a squeak at start up and under partial throttle. Turns out the plugs were loose (I could remove them by hand). So I retightened, but may have missed a coil pack when reconnecting everything. And it is too late and I am tired...
Hopefully, you also put a dab of anti seize on each of the plug's threads before you installed them, and you also now know why torque wrenches were invented....
