Cobalt is the best handling car I've owned for this weather. It doesn't pull to one side when the tires spin. I tested that today. The car does not spin even if I try to spin it. Changing lanes through the deep ruts is smooth. I love it. It's the other idiots on the road that worry me.

I think I've beated the stability control in the car. On the way into work I found the perfect balance of getting the car sideways but not having the car just stop itself. It's a really weird feeling.

Yes it was fun. Thanks for inviting me out. I'm now stuck here in Duluth because the install went to ****. It looks like a patch somebody installed in the past did not fully install so version numbers are all messed up.

fun with the car continues

so, thursday, had the code p0304 (cyl 4 misfire). replaced the plug, still bad. took out the injectors to see if there were any oil in #4 that could cause this, nothing. switched the coil pack over to cyl 3 drove it to checker to use the reader, p0300 (multiple/random misfires).

my question, since i didn't clear the p0304 code before reading it again after i switched the pack over to #3, is it taking that code into effect as well? so it thinks that #4 is misfiring even though it just may only be #3 from the back coil and that lead to the p0300?
