Jim,

I found a resistor somewhat like you said. It had black tape wrapped around the lower part of the wire and some other black plastic molds underneath the resistor. The part number is 000 540 19 81 104 00 34365 0. Is this the correct one? I pulled it, and I really didn't notice a difference. Im using 91 octane cause thats all I can find around here. What do u think?

Thanks,
Giancarlo
