I feel bad when I have to shove an old lady just to get a machine.

Sooo I just got back home with my car in hand.
Here are the deets. Today they did a leak down test, which supposedly checked out. On the receipt I got for the work though, it says something about cylinder 3 having “3% leak”. Is that a safe amount? Next, the tech supposedly found a kink in the fuel line part of the FF kit. Thing is, I never noticed it before... but it’s totally noticeable. So what happened was they disconnected the fuel line from the FF kit (kept it mounted in the engine bay but that’s all), put fuel line back to factory connections. Did a test drive. No more misfire or CEL. So they basically blamed the kink in the line. I’m not sure how it would be at fault except maybe it created a partial blockage and if any gunk got trapped there maybe it would’ve caused more issues? But the misfire and rough idle happened pretty much only below 2k rpm. @Ultramaroon / @Tcoat / @humfrz I realize I’m talking out of my ass but does that theory sound at all possible? Problem is like I said before I never noticed it before. But maybe I didn’t realize what I was looking at was a kink at the time? But, if this has been there the whole time then... maybe this caused the issue from the beginning? Not sure why the bad misfire and cel would’ve stopped with the tune flashed back to stock and headers removed in October till now though.. unless my theory is correct and the problem kept building up somehow. I need to check if I have any photos since it was originally installed to see if the kink was always there.

3 percent leakage is okay.

Kinked line has a low but significant risk of failing (cracking). Blaming it for your engine trouble is complete bullshit.

Honestly dealer wasn’t as helpful as I was hoping. Originally I figured whatever they should be able to test stuff thoroughly but I feel like they just sort of jumped to the first wrong thing.

at 4.4A each, it would need 14 panels to hit that magical 60A mark. which almost sounds to me like he's referencing the wrong model heater... is there a spec sheet for the coils that show the active panel resistance values?
