[s-cars] aw, come on!

[Philip Mische]

Pulled 4412 (I haven't pulled any codes lately so I don't really know how
long it's been there.  Bentley says Cyl #2 injector - short or open, or fuse
#23 open.  I did do the output test: #2 injector seemed to click just like
the others.

The O2 sensor has not been replaced in a good long time.  What was the
conclusion (was there one?) about the price-point replacement?  The only
part of the discussion I recall was about whether to crimp or solder...

The thing that got me was the synchronicity of this problem and the battery
replacement.  I did hope the ECU would re-learn how to make it go again
after a little while, but it hasn't yet.
