The car was towed to Carmine's shop yesterday because once again it wouldn't start. Carmine was appreciative of the comments and suggestions given to me on this board but unfortunately, nothing from recommended tests to the replacement of the already new crankshaft sensor helped solve the problem. He left the car overnight with the plugs out. In the morning the car started and he ran it until warm. Again he got the random misfire code. He then noticed air bubbles, little ones, in the anti freeze bottle which leads him to believe that random failure may be due to a cracked cylinder head or possibly a failing gasket. He's allowing the car to cool off again but in the meantime he asked me to post these results on the board to see if this new detail gives rise to any other suggestions or possibilities. Thank you for reading this, for your help in the past, and for any ideas that may occur to you including whether or not such a job as Carmine is contemplating would be advisable on a ten year old car with 134,000 km that runs beautifully otherwise.
