    Wires on our cars never go bad, unless somehow they got messed up

    No idea, probably old.

    Car sat while I was fiddling with transmission and roll bar for around a month, could the chip have cleared itself/changed tables and such? Battery was disconnected (windows reset themselves and wouldn't auto-up).
    Chip won't clear itself like that. Check fuses, connnections, etc.

    David, couldn't hurt to replace the filter, if I remember right the thing looks like hell. Replace your plugs, all of $10 if that, and maybe think about the rest of the ignition system. OBD 1 chip shouldn't be changing at all, just "learning" the car after reconnecting the battery, which would happen right away...
    Ignition system on our cars doesn't steadily go bad like it would be on yours. The only issues he could really have there would be coil packs or plugs.

    I made some recommendations in a thread on M3F, no idea if David's tried them yet.

    No worries. Get the vanos fixed? Drive was nice and relaxing.

    OT--what's the most probable cause for my car burning exceedingly rich on a Conforti tune? Clogged air filter?

    Bump for today. Sounds like many of us are straggling in between 2 and 3, so we won't be leaving promptly at 2.

    See you all there soon!

    So on that note, where are we meeting? I scrolled up a bit but didn't find a place.
    Lot 436, big CU lot on SW corner of US36/28th and Colorado
