Haha yeah, I fully agree with that but my 1.3L has very little torque to say the least, especially at a lower RPM.

I'll try to keep it in 5th gear as much as I can from now on. I'll be going up from 205/70R15s to 215/75R15 eventually, so it might make it a little harder.

I've still got to go through the rig and do some tune up stuff. Going to check the timing and maybe bump it up a bit, adjust valves, tweak carb, grease wheel bearings, etc.

BTW, are there any people that have noticed an increase in MPG or power with Iridium (or similar) spark plugs? I've heard numerous times that they're a joke and don't help, but on the Suzuki forum I'm on it was mentioned that they help.
