I have had the idle shake (kind of a shutter) briefly on start up twice. Both times the code for Random Cylinder Misfire was thrown. Both times on damp, cold days. But then again, you probably still have snow up there in Vermont ;-)

Sorry to interject... but I've always wondered about this. When you say, "codes thrown", what exactly do you guys mean? Do you mean the patterned flashing of the CEL? If so, how do you know what the pattern means just by looking at it? Don't you need a device of some sort to interpret it?
