Peak Week II came to a disappointing end. http://ukweli.wordpress.com/2010/11/23/peak-week-2-massive-disappoint/
P1300 code "Igniter Circuit Fault ( Bank #1 )” thrown as Tercel coasted up to the fuel pump.
Despite heavy P&G and EOC, cold weather, wind, and one disastrous leg of steady rain brought the average down. Five more days of motorized commute! |

Ultra-Gauge badly miscalibrated. This led to extra effort on my part. High winds were a real challenge. Experimental lower grille block stayed on throughout tank. Mornings consistently around 40 degrees. |

Fairly standard tank. A little extra driving on the weekends. Chilly mornings, some rain and high winds during commute. Low wattage headlight lamps went in mid tank. LED taillights went in late-mid tank. Front end needs attention with new bumper.

100329. Broke 100k. Most unusual tank of driving since first week of ownership. Probably 30% or more city. 120 mile round trip with wife, luggage, and two bikes on trunk rack. Shorter commute for a week. Worst milage in months. Planning 100k maintenance and new "aero" bumper soon. |

One leg with variable grille block wide open. Variable grille block improved. A couple of slightly cool mornings. Lots of one-lane due to construction. This really hampers ability to manage speed. Oil change early in tank. New tires seem noisier than first tank already. |

Stopped off to pressurize newly installed tires--and filled up because of excellent fuel price. Standard commuting. No extra city driving. Ideal weather. Traffic and construction limiting driving choices somewhat.

Consistent high temperatures. One work leg in very heavy thunderstorm. Occasional rain. A few random city trips (Huffmania, etc.). Unbalanced wheel for all of tank. Hope it's an unbalanced wheel, at least. Good EOC discipline. Road construction contributing to ever slower average speeds. |
