I have a pretty thick skin, no worries there.

I think you'll find quite a few documented cases of this on YT already.
I'll dig up the threads if you want to see them.

Thanks for confirming that jjrgr21.

Freezing (-20C today or about -5F), but barely any snow so far.
If you want snow you gotta ask Colorado to send you some, they've been hogging it all this year.

FWIW, every 5VZFE (3.4 V6) I've seen, has had NGK's in one cylinder head, and Denso's in the other, from the factory.

Now that's only maybe 30 engines, but they were all the same.
