1)No compression check yet, but I have no reason to believe it's out of time. The no start issue is intermittent. It will run fine for a day, then not start for 3. Then run fine for a day. Etc...

Plus, my engine is a valve bender. If it were out of time, I would know it lol.

2)I've checked with a test light to make sure the injectors are getting signal. Have not pulled the fuel rail to see if they are actually injecting.

3)No OBDII codes. Although, I have not hooked up a diagnostics computer while it is broken. Funny how it will start fine for 4 days when it's at the mechanic, but it won't start as soon as I get it home.

ehhhh. Intermittent failures. Those are the worst. But you're in luck, I think I found the solution:

I'd like to have tea with John Cleese, Michael Palin, and Pete Townshend. If Jack White showed up, I'd be super tickled. Freedom to smoke wherever the hell I want would be great too.
