Yo TRJ I've gotten the same SES code twice this week. P1352 misfire at start cyclinder 6. You think it's the plugs? It doesn't ever misfire the code will just pop up from time to time.

Anyone know what this noise is?

It's only at idle and goes away as soon as I touch the accelerator. I'm thinking a pulley but don't want to replace every one if I don't have to. Here's the video: http://vimeo.com/61764039

It's most likely an air bubble in the system. When it is completely cool, turn heater on and bleed system a few times. It should go away, I had the same issue.

I turned heater on to lowest setting while engine was cool. I poured coolant/water mix until it came out of bleed hole and then capped the system. So I try re-bleeding the system?

That is what has me baffled. It has worked perfectly for the past 2-3 weeks. It's 26F here tonight and it overheated in 5 minutes. Either the thermostat went bad all of a sudden or the fan switch has...

I should have mentioned that I did swap to the electric fan during this time also. It has been working properly as well. I bled at least 2-3 times after the engine had cooled all of the way.

This is probably one of the dumbest things I've read. Why would you want wheelspin? If you're spinnin', you ain't winnin'. If you want to spin tires all day get a solid rear muscle car.
