I have cleared 3,000 EV miles!

I also found out that I was low 1.3 quarts of ATF. The owners manual and the factory service guide lied about the ATF capacity, and the past week or so I have noticed that it took a while to get going. I thought my idle was too low to pump the fluid, but it turns out that the fluid was too low. I filled it up and will test it out tomorrow.

I have also started to get serious about installing my heater. I still need to locate a 15 PSI relief valve, but I have everything else. I hope to get the control circuit done tomorrow and installed next weekend. That gives me all week to get everything together and bench test it. The weather is starting to get into the low 50's F at night and if I hold off too long it will be snowing before I know it.
