I understand the data you show, nothing out of the ordinary.

you might end up taking it to a shop. my first move as a pro tech would be to hook up my enhanced scan tool and look at fuel trims and missfire data followed by a test drive.
thanks for the help..... much appreciated....
in the past, when i had a code to read, it did start with POXXXX if i remember correctly.

so, when my reader says "mil off", is that ok ? if not, what do i have to do ?

i guess the next day i ahve off i will have to take it to my mechanic.

thanks again..
