[V8] Funny story...

[NIck Miller]

That reminds me, lets not forget this is the same car that dropped the sway
bar outer mount on the passenger side on me, attempting to assassinate me
back then.  Luckily I wasn't going fast at all at that time..  I'm pretty
sure it tried something squirly last winter too, sliding and such with the
malfunctioning abs thats now fixed.    That thing was bent on killing me,
pretty sure it was frustrated and this was its last ditch attempt.

Thanks for the condolences, appreciated.  Shit happens though, this is a
good lesson.  Always use new fuel injector seals, and always oil them and
ensure their seating.  All of which I thought I did but I guess I didn't
seat them well enough...
