Massive mpg jump.
So as you guys know I had an overheating problem which I had fixed, but that wasn't the end of the repairs.
Fixed rear motor mount, and replaced worn out 'Doughnut' that was causing exhaust leak.
Car wouldn't move under own power, #2 cat was clogged.
Hollowed out #2 cat, replaced primary LAF sensor.
#2 o2 sensor throwing #1 cat below efficiency threshold CEL.
Used spark plug non fouler to pull o2 sensor out of the high flowing exhaust.
No more CEL.
Replaced rotors and brakes.
Previously, on the way home from the gas station, doing 45mph and hitting no red lights I got 51.2mpg. Today, doing 55-60mph, and hitting 2 red lights I got 66.4mpg! The car also has a ton more power and assist is almost impossible to run down.
So yea, for those one or two members that might have been wondering, that's the status update.
