Not really, not after a comment like this:Not that i have to justify to you why I'm selling it, but I'm not saving money keeping it, i owe money on it, and with a deployment coming up in a little less than a year I'd like to free up some money and live a bit more bill-free. That alright?
Going to sell this and go for a '13-14 GT500 I think..

Contradict yourself much?
Ill buy your rims lol
The right thing? Sorry, but yall need to get off your high horses. I changed the plug, did a compression test, changed the oil and have over 500mi on it since the code got thrown with no issues. No noises, nvh, smoke, oil consumption, anything. No trying to start shit, but the whole "right thing", thing is very annoying. I've done everything in my power to make sure the car is right, and as its been driving as of late I'd say it is. Only thing i have left i could do, is pull the car apart to check for possible damage, but why would I if its running alright?
I agree with you. You have done due diligence to see if the problem would reappear. I would sell that car and not lose an ounce of sleep over it. Maybe stuff a bore scope down there if you really want to assure yourself that all is well.
And on edit, before everyone gets their hackles up over this...I have been screwed so many times on cars that are supposed to be "perfect," or "turn key," or whatever description you want to give them. It all comes down to this....Caveat Emptor. Do your research. Always, ALWAYS assume something will be wrong. Every time it happens to me, I kick myself for either rushing in, overlooking something obvious, or ignoring those little tingles that tell me to bail.

And wow, never thought a #8 misfire thread would go down a path into a philosophical discussion.
Thanks buddy. You hitting the track rental coming up?
Not sure, I wasnt in the motor at the time it happened..:lol:Where did the oil come from to coat that plug in the pic. How does an issue bad enough to pass that much oil magically fix itself?
i had no idea about a track rental
