Hallelujah!

I reached a new milestone....45 mpg! 45.81 on this tank to be more precise. The ONLY mod to the car is a major adjustment of "the nut behind the wheel."

I've been putting off mods to the car due to lack of time and how new it was. I have the material now to make a grille block, and I need to get a momentary switch to make a fuel pump kill switch. This is sooooo exciting!

That's great to hear. It's crazy how much fuel savings can be had by just changing driving style. It's also helps keep speeding ticket away
