Not yet. I'm sure it's pretty bad. The entire exhaust system needs to be replaced, and I have an issue with my fuel injection as well. I probably need some sensors replaced and I have a tube running from the IAB that is supposed to goto a vacuum tank but I haven't been able to figure out where that is yet. The idle is bad, it burns oil and coolant, I have nice blue and grey smoke pouring out of my 'fart can' that some dumb kid installed on it... It's a mess, hence the name, "Nightmare". So... I'm going to just work on it piece by piece and slowly learn how to be a mechanic with books, the internet, and friends/family and maybe it will turn into a mean machine one day. I'm going to fill up the tank and tires tonight and mark the mileage, then I'll be able to give a guesstimate as to what kind of mpg I'm getting before work is done. I'll be posting actively as time goes by...

Oh, and thanks for the warm welcome folks. :P
