My Scangauge fully reset itself after using it to pull engine codes out of another car. Short fill to reset the Fillup, so I can recalibrate it. Recalibrated the speed just a bit after filling up using a speed vs RPM vs gear ratio calculator, setting the Scangauge at +5%.

Also installed copper Pulstar plugs just before the fillup. So far, so good. We'll see how it goes by the end of this tank.

Installed the Pulstar pulse plugs at the start of the tank. Carbon fouled by 240 miles due to being too cold of a heat range, started misfiring. Initially thought it was a bad spark plug wire, replaced under warranty since the #4 wire had a connector that kept coming off. When that didn't fix the misfiring, I reinstalled the old plugs. Called up Pulstar, and they're sending me a set of their copper plugs to try out.

This tank included a trip to Gresham and back to help a friend move. On the return trip, I hit a blown truck tire and broke my air dam and undertray. Drove home with it off, noted a 3 MPG reduction in highway FE. New air dam has been installed with a slightly different design.

Solo trip to SE Gresham and back, helping a friend move some stuff. Route included some 45 MPH sections and hills. Also included a trip to Salem and back, with 2 passengers in the back.

Before the fillup, I soaked the pistons with Seafoam for 2 hours, then sucked some into the vaccum lines. Also added some Lucas upper cylinder lubricant.

My new Pulstar Pulse plugs arrived today. I'll be draining this tank of gas before installing them.

Trip to Gresham with moderate rainfall, with trip from Gresham to Tigard and back. Ran the tank down past E to use up some old gas. 3 oz acetone added to help clean out the fuel system.

At fillup, replaced distributor cap/rotor, cleaned MAF sensor, and cleaned throttle body. Ordered Pulsar pulse plugs to try them out and see if they really do make more power/better economy.

From Fruitland, ID to Bend, OR. Filled up at a quarter tank to be sure I'd make it home just fine. Realized after I should have just kept going and got home on E because it's not moving for a while. Lots of downhill starting on the next tank, but with it sitting, I'm sure some of the ethanol is going to evaporate.

First tank with the Festiva transmission, with a 3.77 final drive ratio instead of the Aspire's stock 4.05. Skipped 5 fillups total with using only 2nd and 4th gears. It took a little bit for everything to settle in. Some freeway driving with headwinds/crosswinds.

The final drive gear did not affect my odometer readings. They stayed 2.5% under the actual distance traveled. Highway mile markers were used to verify the odo.

Timing belt broke during this tank, and the car sat for a month waiting for a head replacement. About an hour of idling at the shop.

After I got the car back, I cleaned and indexed the spark plugs, switched to a warm air intake, changed the tranny fluid to Royal Purple, rotated the tires, installed rear wheel skirts, and blocked the upper grille.

I was planning on buying a set of 5 LRR tires to install, but I decided to go ahead and use up the ones I have first, since finances are a little tighter than anticipated.

Refilled the tires after the fillup. Lots of crosswinds and rain.

During the tank, I added a windshield wiper deflector and added a hatch spoiler. No ABA testing yet.

Just got two 4x8 sheets of black coroplast in. Time for an air dam/undertray build!

First full tank with the Aspire. First time driving a manual transmission!

Full tuneup before driving (plugs/wires, cap/rotor, oil change). First half of the tank driven with tires at whatever pressure the PO had (ended up being 22 rear, 32 front), later filled to 40 all around.

New hubcaps with clear plastic covering will be installed.

Scangauge II was installed shortly before the fillup.
