Hagar,
You know what's funny, below is the clip I've saved in my own personal
archive since you wrote it::
think I was paying attention old buddy! What I've been doing lately is
running about a quart and a half of Canola to a tankful, starts and runs better
and noticably smoother but unfortunately no appreciable gains in mileage,
maybe just a tiny smidgin. It is comforting knowing that with the additional
lubricity, the engine should last longer as well. Doug Ferguson
Well Ferguson -- some time back you said that you were interested in those AD-100
experiments.
I knew you paid attention --- just wanted to make sure that you understood that the timing mechanism
was the problem --- causing even a perfectly TIMED Rabbit to smoke and lack power.
Later under Hillbilly TUNING it will be explained how a what DIY guy can do about the timing
system.
Stay TUNED.
Hagar.
PS: Canola makes a lot of difference ? --it may mean the pump is wearing.
