    Actually there are 3 sizes. One is specific to the Ford 5.4 engines. Anyone who is a mechanic will know the one I'm talking about.....the one that breaks spark plugs all the time haha


    And btw - I have a multimeter at the shop

    Thanks man. I'll let you know. Hopefully its something stupid, simple, and cheap lol


    EDIT :
    For anyone who is wondering what came of the Zombie Cat thing....I just got seen by the doc. I have a pretty nasty infection going on. Doc says chance of rabies is small. When animal control does the testing or whatever on the cat, they will call me and let me know if I need rabies treatment. Doc says Im safe for at least 3 weeks without the treatment

    ha!

    Dunno. Doc just said its infected and to keep it REALLY clean. She gave me some antibiotics and pain killers for it. Said if I have any problems with it to come back and see her again


    On a side note. This morning Wazzy went up to the shop and said my car is starting and driving just fine now. He didn't do anything to it at all.
