koop....... tech is a pretty nice and knowledgeable guy...... i would just do as he suggests..... it might cost you $60 to get it diagnosied, then you just fix the problem yourself

I can't disagree with you. He seams like a stelar gentleman. I'm not copmmletely sure why I'm so disguseted with the idea of taking my car to the dealer. I just feel like I'll walk out with my wallet missing. I have Friday off and I may very well take it in and see if they can check really quick for me. Otherwise I may end up moving some parts around to try to diagnose it as much as I can.

hey, i have no problem trying things, but when all else fails and i don't wanna throw anymore money at something...... let them charge like 60 bucks talk to the guy doing the diagnosis........ and alot of times he will show you what is broke

There was something in the conector. It was simply a bad connection. I was switching the ICMs and I figured I would take a look. It was a brown greasy/dusty substance. I'm guessing it was just inhibiting the connection which is why it wasn't really misfiring consistantly after it was reaplaced, but it was still throwing low voltage. Good lesson to always clean your contacts when you do anything electrical. Thanks for the help again.
