Cool Hello From Tampa, FL

I'm driving a 2004 Pontiac Sunfire and want to get 40mpgs out of it. I found this website about 5 months ago, and started doing mods every chance I had. I am saving about $8.57 per tank compared to EPA! I've gone from about 30mpg to 35. That's Insane! I plan on keeping this car for a long time, so seeing the benefits so fast has been nice.

I ran in to my first problem recently and was wondering if you guys could help me out? It has to do with lighting.

I've recently been putting L.E.D.s everywhere I can (with maybe .02-.03 GPH improvement while night time driving). Finally got to the rear turn signals/brake lights. I have not changed the front signals yet. They work but when I use them as blinkers they blink very fast.

I have read that the power consumption is so low that the car thinks they might be broken so they blink fast. The solution being to add a resistor to add more load. buuuuuut I want to Reduce load lol. Any thoughts?

Go Bucs,
