Did some minor maintenance work on Turtle today. New fuel filter, distributor O-ring, both v-tech solenoid gaskets, and EGR solenoid gasket. I also cleaned out the EGR solenoid ang passage with some carb cleaner. But now I noticed a small coolant leak from the 5/16 hose that connects the TB to the IM, so I have to fix that tomorrow.
Filled up again today too and got 51.8 mpg. Doesn't look like the tires have had too much of a positive effect yet, but they are still being broken in. At least I seem to be averaging over 50 mpg now according to my last 3 tanks.
I also ordered some wheel spacers today.
This gap between the wheel and the wheel arches is huge and was really starting to get to me. Now I don't know if this will be good or bad for aerodynamics (I've tried researching it but couldn't find anything conclusive) but I'm sure it will look 10x better and since I also want this car to look good I figure it's worth it. After measuring the gap I settled on 25mm spacers for the rear and 20mm for the front. I got them from Amazon, but they look like good quality pieces for the price. Here's the link if anyone want to check them out:
