what I did to the Cavy today

got a K&N panel filter today for Tracey's Cavy...the old paper filter was getting dirty & well, she plans on driving the car into the ground, so the K&N was a logical choice, since it'll cost less in the long run, was only $34, versus around $7 for the paper panel

Also got a can of Seafoam, so i put 1/2 a pint in the oil to stir around for the last 500miles to clean out any deposits, then i ran the last 1/2 thru the intake to help clean out some carbon

Then i pumped the tires up to 44psi.

The car definetly accelerates better to my suprise (usually a panel filter doesn't make much of a difference) & it definetly rolls father when i coast

this tank is going to be a little less MPG from me, uh cleaning out the SeaFoam but we'll find out exactly what these mods will do for my MPG the next tank, still has about a 1/2 tank of gas left in it
