MPG with Mods
All, as rediculous as this sounds I am now getting better gas mileage
than I have EVER gotten with this car. With the mixture set correctly
(Thanks PDQSHIP), and then home-grown ECU mod, I am now seeing 37 mpg on
the higway with the cruise set at 72 mph. Strangely enough though when I
back it down to 68-70mph range, the mileage is cut to about 35 mpg. I am
assuming that this is due to the mixture setting at a given RPM range un
the ECU lookup table. Or could it be more due to the gearing of the
car... Maybe WARATAP's 4.11's would help :) or Graydon's EFI or
PDQSHIP's RS-2, all I need is MONEY!
