Ten years of experience behind the wheel of this car (my only car) and tracking its millage tank-to-tank has taught me to appreciate 55mph and down as pretty optimal in terms of FE. But above 60mph, it has seemed the FE goes down rather quickly. AS you know, I have no gauges other than my brain, the odometer, and the fuel gauge. This tank I have returned to 60mph, but I am compensating with bump-starting (which I had not been doing). I also added grille blocks and a passenger-side mirror delete. My mods are craft more than science. But I love this site, and I am extremely grateful for its existence. Its great to learn.
