Will try the beta reply. MacbookPro OS10.6.8 Mail Beta did not work.
Thank you Klaus, I was hoping for a reply from you. Used to lurk on the Brickboard when I had my 240 GLT (sort of miss it now 400,000 miles).
Started the compression test today, nice warm engine, hand tightened the hose from the compression tester into the Number 1 cylinder, cranked the engine 4 times as recommended, got a 95 reading on the number 1, then could not remove the hose... much later, got it out with a torx driver. There must have been a missing attachment on the compression tester (borrowed from O'Reily' s Auto Parts. Will try again tomorrow.
Cleaned the battery terminals and am currently checking grounds from battery forward.
Actually ran good this evening with no code.
I did notice that where the wires that go into head to the coils come off the main wiring harness is rather tight against the engine and full of dirt. I undid the upper harness support and sort of tied it off to the side. This seemed to temporarily cure the bump caused misses.
Compression check and I will continue to check the wiring.
