Message	I've had one 555cc injector go bad on me <10K miles. Car started chugging a little a couple of months ago, smoothed out at speed so I just pretended I was driving a V-8 when the car would shake at idle. Weather nice, so I finally got under the hood. First coil pack connector I pulled, cylinder #1, no change at all in the engine idle. That was easy. Confirmed by pulling a couple more connectors, car responded appropriately with a lower idle and REALLY chugging. Then came the good news. Cleaned the connector, added some dielectric grease, hooked it back up and chug was gone. Forgot how smooth the car could be. And she's noticably quicker, I've convinced myself. So for now, I'm good :c)
