Just put 14.7 gallons in today. My first fill up since comming back from RRC!!!
Let's see, filled up in Barstow, drove to Running Ssprings(84 miles), drove to Riverside(37 miles), and then 14 miles a day for 12 days (168 miles).
84
37
+168 289 Miles!!
That's aproximently 20 MPG!!
Way better than my 4x4 pickup at 7 MPG!
I got about 20- 24 mpg on my trip to and from RRC.
I think that's pretty bad, but I think I know why. I have a variable resistor in
place of the CHT sensor in the fuel injection system. It is normally set to about
1.8 k ohms, which is very cold (rich?). The car runs cool at that setting, but I
don't know what else I am doing to the engine. It runs hot (>400 degrees CHT)
otherwise.
You need another category, I get lousy mileage and know why!!
