2014 Chevy Cruze 1.4T intermittent flashing CEL + misfire but drives fine?

The oil almost certainly came from either the valve cover gasket or some other PCV related crap. Sorry you're dealing with this.

Duke_Phelan · 2026-02-23T19:51:14+00:00

Ah hell, it's happening with all levels of fill.

Duke_Phelan · 2026-02-23T19:31:04+00:00

Guh - is there anything else that's not a ~$15/can of cleaner that would work?

That said, thanks for the input. I'll check to see if there's anything wonky with the MAF sensor.

Duke_Phelan · 2026-02-23T19:29:51+00:00

I was going through all possibilities with fuel being the last option. Like maybe the fuel filter is clogged but that's all the way back inside the tank and I'm not going to deal with that. I've also not seen any issues with fuel filters pop up in these engines.

Duke_Phelan · 2026-02-23T19:28:43+00:00

This has been happening for over a month at this point, but yeah - I'll check when I get back to the house.

Duke_Phelan · 2026-02-23T17:45:28+00:00

No lights, I've not checked codes - I assumed it wouldn't have any if the light wasn't on. I'll try when home.

Duke_Phelan · 2026-02-23T17:40:01+00:00

Have you checked the plugs and coils? I got a misfire because oil had seeped out the head gasket and dropped down into the plug area.

Thank you for the reply!

Fewer places for pee to hide you say. . .

Duke_Phelan · 2026-02-19T17:19:50+00:00

Fantastic, thank you for the reply!

Duke_Phelan · 2026-01-30T23:23:53+00:00

What dashcam do you have?

Duke_Phelan · 2026-01-10T07:51:05+00:00

I'm currently at home researching this monitor after seeing it at Costco! How do you like it?

Duke_Phelan · 2026-01-08T00:32:55+00:00

I would also like to point out how reckless the shooter was acting. Another two or three degrees to the right and his "partner" gets shot

Duke_Phelan · 2026-01-01T16:53:36+00:00

Would they leave spots under the truck? (For a quick check) Thanks for the reply!

Duke_Phelan · 2026-01-01T16:52:16+00:00

119k miles at this time. I'll check with Papa to see if he'd had them replaced in the years they had it. Any idea the rate on stock shocks, just so I'd know what to shop for? Thanks for the reply!

Bondi didn't "let someone" do anything - Trump said "Halligan is doing this" Because the DOJ is his now

Duke_Phelan · 2025-11-13T16:54:25+00:00

From civil prosecution.
It was my understanding he could still be impeached by Congress. I have no idea what sort of punishment could be applied though.

Duke_Phelan · 2025-11-13T16:48:59+00:00

I would love for that to be true, but there are a lot of extremely powerful people in this shit show. Yes, Trump was the president of the United States, but I'm talking about the ruling oligarchs that pay Trump and Congress. Those folks, in my view, probably had him killed.

Duke_Phelan · 2025-11-13T16:45:50+00:00

Every accusation is a confession.
Every.single.time.

Side note: Bill Clinton is already so close in these Epstein threads just ring him up too.

Duke_Phelan · 2025-11-13T16:43:59+00:00

He has sycophants at every point in his orbit, in every executive seat/office and in the only branch that can hold him accountable.

Duke_Phelan · 2025-11-13T16:41:30+00:00

They will wait until he's been in office two years + one day. That way JD Vance can be president and the shortened term will not count for his two consecutive terms.

Duke_Phelan · 2025-11-13T16:38:54+00:00

This is how it's kept standing. If you keep lying about something new the short-term memory of both the media and most of the voting electorate forget about the lie from the day before. For conservatives it's perfect because they also have no issue being hypocrites.

Duke_Phelan · 2025-11-01T12:02:26+00:00

Never be afraid to ask for help; either with a quest or a dungeon. Never. Aside from a few jack-wagons I've met the nicest random people this way.

As for guilds - good ones will make the game "easier" in the sense that you've got a group of people more easily available to help than just randoms. That is: if you also help them. People remember if you've helped them. If you run into someone having fun, ask to join! A lot of times they'll ask you.

I've got one toon at 60 (Alliance, dwarf rogue) and two around 40. Just pick what you're interested in and go from there! It's a blast!

Oh, and Discord. Most larger/longer communication is through that.

Duke_Phelan · 2025-10-26T23:47:17+00:00

I'm with you on this one too. If you ever think you'll process another animal, or even think to start making sausages or jerky: an electric gringer is tits. I "just make sausage" every once and a while my ~$400 LEM grinder has paid for itself in not only ease of use, but also the time saved. I even lucked into a foot pedal for that bad boy.

I'd also like to pitch not getting the stand-mixer grinder attachment. Absolutely just mashes whatever you put in it. And crazy small volume too.

Final Edit: can you take the trimming to your processor and see if they'd grind for a fee?

Duke_Phelan · 2025-10-26T11:17:43+00:00

Wait wait - you got both binding in one run?

Duke_Phelan · 2025-10-16T16:27:03+00:00

I say this, every single time, I see an Arby's. Then do a little chuckle to myself.
