Folks, thanks for the help. Esp thanks to the curiator
of Road Cow, Britt, for his local expertise to the
Redding CA area. Thank, man. i o u a beer and an elk
steak (if i get one this year...)

Anyways... conclusion- blew a spark plug out. It was
not stripped though. 116$ for new wires (had to get
all 4), new plugs (replaced all while at it!) and a
bit of labor.

800 miles to go.
thanks
matthew
