[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 1022984, member: 52972"] Did you not write down the error code when you found out cylinder 4 was misfiring and that you had an air leak? That should give the mechanic enough info to start looking and running test to lock down where the air leak is. It might be a cracked inttake (they are plastic), or simply a split or disconnected hose...It is very common to have a split elbow hose on early ST's. If your mechanic cannot start looking and testing, he is stalling, and I suggest you take your ST to another shop. ...Rich [/QUOTE]
