I took a quick look under the hood. the spark plugs looked a little sooty & weren't gap'd enough. They were only at a 0.036" gap. I bought new plugs making sure that they were resistor plugs & put them in. I will order NGKs later this week & put those in when I get them, but I wanted to get new plugs in right away. Otherwise everything looked ok. Tomorrow when it's daylight I'm going to take a look at the o2 sensors & the follow the wires to see if there are any faults.
I also noticed there was a thin whitish tube near the top left of the engine that had black electrical tape around it near the connector around a 90 degree bend in it. I have no idea what it is. If someone could point me toward a diagram of the v6 engine I might be able to find out what it's called & what it's for.
Otherwise, CEL still on. Running OK as far as I can tell.
