Happened the last time I had it on a long run also, semewhere between 20-30 miles into the trip - I wasn't paying close attention to the distance yet. I wasn't thinking mileage, I was thinking cat temp and engine temp etc. Tonight it was very cool out; I figured I'd take a run and see what happened. Tomorrow I'll drive 60 mi. to work. You can bet that I'm going to pay close attention to exactly when I lose LB.
