repeat, repost, whatever it is...
sometimes its not about non-believing. I am a mellow ecomodder, starting with an infamous driveline is my only prerequisite..
hence one of my many stories that will leave me and inline engines apart forever:
I was asked to drive a geo tracker (2 liter 4x4) . I thought "great. this may be something to evolve into, wouldn't mind trying it."
.25 of a tank of fuel, had maybe 50 miles to next stop following as I was asked. As the curse goes with me and the worlds worst driveline called "an inline four"... I ran out of fuel halfway there. I was so surprised I stuck my nose in and around fuel areas to check for leaks. It went below 10mpg without even tooling on the throttle...
the only thing we could conclude is the bumps and dips on the concrete highway pounded the fuel out of the injection...amazing.
If your inline is bad, it really is. I have said this time and time again: They need to be outlawed to catch up to real math, and real knowledge, and real drivetrains that leave old timers still scratching thier heads, as 50 year old cars and trucks did better than some of todays japanese ricing ripoffs claiming economical.honda being enemy #1 on the hipocrisy list.
2 liter inline? allow me to blow your doors off like a hillbilly in a 3500 pound v8 and prove better gas mileage...
