Well, The Avalanche is probably history. Had it scanned, and after fooling with the 4x4 selector switch, (engine running, trans in nuetral), a couple of times, it was back on. The seller doesn't seem very concerned about fixing it. Screw it. As for my Z-28, number 3 cylinder had a misfire. I checked it with my IR gun and I found it was less than half the temp as the others. The guy that scanned it said it was the plug. I have never paid to have plugs installed one of my vehicles. This particular shop has been a bit slow lately, and the owner said for around $380.00 he would change all 8 plugs and the wires. (I trust the guy), but does that sound high? Just curious.

Yeah, I went ahead and let him change the plugs and wires. I'm sure I could have cleared the code by simply replacing #3, but they all have the same mileage. I'm pretty sure I could have changed them, but I simply can't find the time to do much right now. It still baffles me how in only 7,075 miles, a plug began mis-firing. Unless, of course, that IS the problem.....it just isn't driven enough. Yeah Dan, I still have those headers on my '69. I don't drive it enough either.
