This is similar to what I have been experiencing, and you have a nice little solution. I run a WAI and I have been wondering about a different approach that would allow seasonal switching. Thanks for noting it.

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
