So, the next oil leak is dealt with. It was the alternator bracket and associated o-rings. Engine degreased and we'll see what leak crops up next. From what I can see, that was it. Fingers crossed.

As for the misfires, we suspected intermediate levers, but I did check mine a ways back and they weren't part of the recall campaign. Went online with the shop's auto logic tool and found they were set to 0.1mm. Range is typically 0.3mm (min. and spec) up to 0.8mm (software adjust to compensate for crappy ones and/or wear). We set to 0.3mm and I'll keep an eye on the cold starts and see how it goes. You can increment by 0.1mm up to 0.8mm. At the upper range, it alerts that throttle response and fuel consumption would be adversely affected. Both sound so appealing.......

Cheers.
