Total random, but when you’re opening a can drinks (beers, soda, others) which hand & which finger do you use to open it? I’m right-handed, but I open w left hand middle finger.

My buddy thought so weird, cuz I’m right-handed & still open w left hand. Also use middle finger, cuz when I was young tried to open the can I crack the pointing finger nail badly. Since then using middle finger. I always hold my drink on my left hand, so it was easy for me open w left hand.

Righty, right index finger. Occasionally if I'm home and the ring is particularly tight I start it with my bottle opener first.

Do you make house calls? Not paying for mileage though.

I asked my GM what the long term plan with the spring shop is. It was never my intention to permanently run it, and I only currently run the shop side. Right now I splitting time between purchasing and the shop and it is not working. I am basically half assing two things but 4 times as stressed.

His answer:
Make money.

Good for you for taking the high road and holding your tongue. Takes a lot of self control.

That is an odd one. I'd check that the DI driver is tight and check ground straps. I wouldn't think plugs/coils. You would be getting a P030X if it was misfiring due to ignition side or fueling cutting.

DI driver? Yeah no codes/CELs. Looking forward to OP responding so I can verify what data attribute he's using to determine that the noise is in fact a knock.
