The stock water temp gauge registers mid range at around 140 but my oil pressure doesn't seem to think the car is warmed up till it see's 180. I personelly drive my car right away (doesn't need to reach op temp before I pull away) but I do keep it below 3k till my oil pressure will stay below 60 psi above 3500 rpm. I have dissabled the AWS and double throttle so I make it a point to watch my oil pressure as an indicator. My car hates to be driven reasonably, I have a rechipped ECU and it will stumble and buck if I press the issue if it's not warmed up. Jack

This sounds a lot like mine. I think I will just take it to PFS for this issue. Its burning a lot fuel to the point where the back of my car where the muffler is total black with fuel. As it gets worse its studdering and skiping beats more. To the point there taking over 2k starts the studering. Lower than 2k is seams for the first 5 min.

PFS Is like and hour and half away from annapolis or Lanham area. Anybody know any other places that are closer with the same reputation for 3rd gens? Theres a list in the NE 3rd gen forum page but its a ridiculuosly huge list and no sign of reputation. I'm a big fan of word of mouth.

Thanks,

Seb
