Glad to hear that it is running fine now. I don't recomend that you cover the air bag light tho. There could be a serious problem. Let me look into it some more.

I once cleaned my engine and accidently got water down into the hole where plug 4 goes. My engine ran like butt and I got a cel saying that cyl 4 was misfiring. When I pulled the plug wire and saw all that water I realized that it was causing the spark to arc to the head, causing the misfires. Once I cleaned it out and dried it out real good it worked like a dream!

The fuel rail is deffantly a recall that needs to be done so that is good that you got it. The ecu recall is not for resetting but rather updating the fuel map to suppostedly solve an issue. For me, that did not solve it but after upgrading to 17lb sephia (Bosch) fuel injectors it the lack of fuel issue disapared. I also had a CAI and header will full exhaust tho.
