First tank data is in.
Just shy of 40mpg, which includes some 60miles of tail out handling testing
First FWD I've had that will oversteer to any extent, Lotus tuned suspension and all that
The current wheels are 205's vs 175's stock and a smaller diameter too
I can't find the exact ones online but they seem to be C rated on the Euro label, so there's room to improve there.
Right now, I'm chasing a cold idle problem. Starts fine, but stumbles when revved, sometimes stalls, but drives fine after ~3 restarts. Last time I drove it, it revved between ~1500-2000 on it's own until I keyed off and restarted. No ECL or obvious issues otherwise.
Unfortunately it's not OBDII so I'm trouble shooting the old fashioned way (I don't know if/how to read codes using the old flashing light method, I've more or less rulled out the fuel pump, water temp sensor and IAT. I'll try to test the MAP today.
Suggestions appreciated.

Funnily enough, this could have been the new Dodge Rampage as the Lancer was sold as a Dodge Colt, and this is a pick up version of that.
I'm thinking of putting Dodge badges on it. It's funny how four of my cars are now sort of Fiats. Jeep (now under Fiat), Fiat 500, Renault Trafic (also sold as a Fiat) and the Proton...and Mitsubishi currently supply the pick up sold as the Fiat Fullback.
