Update..

Found the culprit for the heavy missing this weekend. (Loose spark plugs (2)...gaskets weren't crushed all the way so two of them were loose..Lesson learned: Triple check everything when you're doing plug wires, caps and rotors because there's a lot of crap going on there and it's easy to space out on something. Kind of embarrassing if you ask me )

Now comes the question posed earlier about stabilizing the idle a little bit more. In the morning the car DOES still idle rough (sometimes it can even miss) and I'm considering widening the gap on the spark plugs. (0.9mm vs 0.8mm). Do the ignition coils on the 119 have enough juice to support this and would this resolve this issue? (Techron has been run through the system already so the injectors should be fairly cleaned out)

Keep me posted.
