Update!!!
So far i am getting over 50mpg around town and right about 60mpg on the highway!
Has some new tires, 155/80/12, rides a lot better than the 70 series.
Just about everything that was wrong with it has been ironed out with a little messing around. Driver door just needed wd40, works great now. Both windows work pretty well. Short that was draining the battery was in the driver side seatbelt detector.
This car had a/c installed at the dealership when bought by the previous owner. The high idle air valve was really messing with the idle. All ac components have now been removed and its running tremendously better! Only thing left is the crank pulley with 2 rows, on the hunt for a single row xfi crank pulley now.
The car has a new radiator and hoses. There was no mounting for a fan so there is no radiator fan. I sat in traffic in 110°f and it never went up past half. I coasted down a several mile hill and the temp gauge dropped all the way down! Seems to be an extra efficiant radiator, or this tiny thing just doesnt really make any heat, its amazing!
Working on finding a pic hosting site, pics soon!
