Well, all ends on a good note. The VX is once again healthy and running like a thoroughbred. Pulled the plugs. Previous owner had replaced them with cheapo Champions. I put in a new set of Bocsh Platinum 2's and reconnected the battery. Started her up and "damn" same symtems! Disconnected the battery again and tapped on the fuel rail and injectors then reconnected the battery. Started her up and she purred like a kitty! Drove her around a bit and no problems!!!
Also noted that all cylinders appeared to be burning equally, all plugs looked equally burned, all were dry and no appearance of oil!!!!
