87 Oct Meijer
Installed 2000 RS Intake Box (top and bottom) about 3/4 tank through. Stock resonator was removed. The diameter of intake into the fender wall is much bigger now Makes pushing pedal more fun due to more grumble of course...
At the initial startup of this new tank of fuel, the car threw a code. Most likely a dirty MAF if i have to guess. We shall see soon.
The engine oil leak has slowed considerably due to auto-rx i believe. The transmission now has a small amount in it in anticipation of a flush and fill. |

Filled with 87 Octane from Petro Truck Stop
Bigger wheels in diameter and tread width put on. Should actually be a negative affect on mileage. But, more accurate distance numbers due to GPS reading say stock speedo is off. |

Filled with 87 Marathon - 38th st
I am not sure if this is accurate as it is the trip odometer mileage from previous owner, but i reckon it may be close.
The journey starts with improving the car to my liking while improving mileage as well to make the car as a suitable long travel vehicle and fun vehicle. |
