I drained the gas out and refilled it with supreme and a healthy dose of Sea Foam. My next step is to get some Sea Foam directly into the throttle bodies to see if I can clean out the combustion chambers and possibly the plug. If that doesn't work it's time to start stripping her down tomorrow.

Of all the stupid things I can think of, I kinda hope it's an injector wire that's come loose. At least that way, that cylinder is not getting washed down. I dont think it's a plugged injector because I just cant see one getting completely plugged while the other 3 still work so well.

At least it handles a lot better now with the new tires on (Even though they're Shinkos).
Come with the toolkit? Plug access is nigh on impossible without it
