'Lil 2.2 Got 24MPG combined from Sat to today
Holy moly, I'm not sure what made the difference but I got 20.5 on the 100 mile loop before, and just got a shade over 24MPG putting on 139.5 miles. Maybe I did a little more freeway this time around. I always use 76 because there's a 76 station in Fountain Valley that always has the best prices. I'm really encouraged, as soon as I can I'm going to dyno as is, and then start throwing tuneup parts at it.
You know I've often thought about building a gutted S-10 roadster. It would haul buns, and probably get pretty good mileage. |

Thats pretty decent. We're paying $3.96 a gallon up here.

Regular gas is at $4.25 a-gallon here in OC So Cal. I'm headed up to Apple Valley to do a story for Biker mag today. I'm going to fill it up before I go and try to get as much of a pure highway loop as possible. We've got Cajon Pass which is a pretty steep climb to get over, and then I'll coast like crazy when I come home.
I wish I had the new plugs and DUI coils in. |

Did you fill at the exact same station and the exact same pump? The same pump comphensates for angle differences-----the fuel level in the tank could change from pump to pump depending on the slant of the pavement.
i usually fill at exxon, hopefully the same one and the same pump. But i think some exxons have/had 100% gas while most have E10/E15. |

What are the symptoms when the evap solenoid burns up. If mine are fried, I'd know right? Thanks, |

Remember the good old days when a mechanical fuel pump took 10 minutes to change, and it didn't matter if the tank was run too low, or filled too high?... I love my '66 C10 with a stock two-barrel 327. |
