It is Tony. In hindsight, I should have pulled the unit right away. My plan was to see how far out the unit was from proper operation, to determine if I'd do the unit in house or send it out.

It seems to me, the engine has a bit more of a vibration to it, and the vacuum reading is not quite as stable. I'm not going to chance it. Be it if I keep the car or sell it, I want to make sure a problem does not show up..... and possibly hurt the block (by breaking a rod).
