Rotated the tires front to back then replace the rear back tire with a good used $30 installed, mounted & balanced. Tried taking off the belt for the serpentine. The serpentine belt runs from the crank to the a/c to the power steering back to the crank. The alternator is ran by a belt from the power steering, which needs replace now. Tried this twice on my way to work. The second time I tried this the car wouldn't start while trying to leave work. Battery was to weak. Hope that this next tank will be excellent. Going to @ 400 miles before fill up. Same top off method. Shooting for @ 52-54 mpg. Lots more coasting, no idle time, no more vibration from a bad tire.
